Playful Cartoon Sphinx Among Desert Cacti

A cartoon-style sphinx with a human-like face and a lion body sits in a bright desert clearing, surrounded by tall, goofy-looking cacti. Bold black outlines, flat saturated colors, and simplified shapes give it a cheerful, kid-friendly vibe. The sphinx wears a gold collar and studies a small parchment scroll with a riddle. The background features a stylized sunset sky with orange, pink, and purple gradients and a few fluffy clouds. Ground is sandy beige with tiny rocks and sparse desert plants. The scene is designed with playful proportions, clear shading, and a lighthearted mood.
