Black Velvet

This is a painting I finished a couple of weeks ago. It's based off of a photo from a 1962 book for girls.

Funny looking pup.

I'm not sure how I feel about it...tacky?cute?cool?

So I named it black velvet, because like a black velvet painting, I can't decide how I feel about it. Is the tacky factor outweighing the cool?
