Desert Owl by Shachi Kale (Hidden Piece)

My first puzzle by Hidden Piece Puzzles — “Desert Owl” by Shachi Kale. Loved the art — beautiful, with wonderful colors and patterns — and really enjoyed the cut. The uneven border was done really well. The whimsies were fun — not too overwhelming, and all thematically appropriate. There were a bunch of cacti, and owls, and a Kokopelii …. if you look at the large assembled image, on back, it looks like a winged skull.
