Looks like Mexican folk art.

Nicely done! Love the cross hatching and the textures used. I’m guessing this traditional? There’s a couple things that I’d love to point out. Like the fact that the character seems squished into this tiny canvas. Maybe you could make him a bit smaller next time. Decrease the head size and increase the length of the body. Though it does say that this is digital. So, you can probably go back and fix that without a problem. That really throws me off though. It looks traditional. Like pastels/markers? Or color pencils and markers? Idk. Love the color palette. I’ll give you somethings it remind me of. desert, new mexico, psychedelics, mural, Diego rivera vibes. I feel like the cactus stands out way too much from the rest of the piece. I like how the foreground is rounded to ease the eyes on to the subject, however the cactus, being way too green become the focus, rather than the hound. That’s a run on sentence. You can probably try to desaturate the green or add in an orange/purple tint to make it blend with the piece more and bring back the focus to the main subject – the hound.

 

Love it! Good job.

Thank you for your valuable feedback! And I don't know why it says digital, it's actually marker and colored pencil as you guessed with a little brush-pen. I'll have to fix that later. I didn't even notice the cactus being so garish. And the body is definitely short. Do I tend to make the heads large in my art?

I love the colors you used here. Very bright and bold! If I may offer one little suggestion for the future? The muzzle part of the canine seems to blend in a little too much with the background because the colors are so similar. If you were to keep a small white line border around the canine, I think it would make the canine really pop out and add a dramatic dynamic to your piece. Overall good job! Keep up the good work

Thank you, I'll remember that for next time. I understand what you mean and will try to vary the colors more or add accents. ^^
