Dachshund Bookworm Illustration

I’d like a charming, cartoon-style scene that shows an exaggeratedly long dachshund winding playfully through a book, exactly the way a worm would tunnel through paper. The piece needs to feel light-hearted and cheerful, and the overall palette should sit firmly in soft pastels—think gentle peaches, mints, and sky blues that keep the mood bright without becoming loud. The dog should have a standard black and tan coat colour and should resemble a short-haired daxie, not a long-haired one. Below the design, the word "bookworm" should be written in a cute, handwriting style font.

Because this will be used on print-on-demand products (shirts, mugs, posters, etc.), the artwork must be delivered at print resolution. Please draw clean, expressive line work, exaggerating the dog’s length so its body loops in and out of the book. A friendly, curious facial expression will help sell the playful vibe.

Deliverables
• High-resolution PNG (minimum 300 DPI) with transparent background
• Source file (PSD, AI, or layered Procreate) so I can adjust sizing for different merchandise
• Color palette reference swatch to ensure consistency across products

Let me know if you need any extra reference images of dachshunds or book layouts before you get started.
