The central motif features a cartoon-style dog rendered in a warm palette of medium and light browns, accented by light and dark tonalities that define the fur’s texture. Bold, oversized blue eyes with matching, exaggerated tears synchronize with stylized blue water splashes and an overturned pale beige bucket with a vivid blue interior. The olive green background, matte and softly graded, sets off the entire composition, while the tapestry’s surface is rendered in a plush, slightly shaggy finish suggestive of classic latch hook technique.
