A poodle with an exaggerated, heavily textured coat stands front-facing while gripping a barbell loaded with iron plates, its expression one of determined intensity. The illustration uses confident black line work on a soft beige ground, combining humor and strength through the contrast between the dog's refined grooming and its weightlifting prowess. Printed on clear acrylic and made to order in two sizes. A serving piece for the dinner party or a pop of color as a kitchen accent, carrying an independent artist's work instead of a big-box print.
