Magic Forest by Corgi
I found this “Magic Forest” (art by Frank Champine) puzzle by “Corgi” at PuzzleHouse.com, and as it was lovely tree art, I went for it. 500 pieces, 13″x19″. A colorful water color painting of a forest with trees reflecting in the river. The original art for these Corgi puzzles is printed on acid free 80# […]
Whooo Goes There by CuriousTiger from Nautilus
Ash and I enjoyed this small owl art puzzle from Nautilus — such a pretty image! “Whooo Goes There” by “CuriousTiger”. I looked for CuriousTiger at DeviantArt, Etsy … could not find one that seems definitively like the right artist. Google Image linked to a site called “Alamy”, which has this image under the name […]
Puzzlapy, Cats in Paris
“Cats in Paris“, the 120-piece version, by Puzzlapy aka Isabelle Rouillard. The artist is Isy Ochoa. – and browsing her website, I learned that she did a picture book about Rosa Bonheur! I loved this puzzle, and the cuts! Some beautiful color line cutting of the cats, and the little bird, and the Tour Eiffel. […]

Ryoko Meditating Skeleton by Artifact
“Meditating Skeleton” by Ryoko, from Artifact. Super fun! I really liked the irregular border. The base puzzle shape was a skull, with little heart-shaped bone socket connectors. I’ve had this puzzle since April 2022, and just hadn’t gotten around to it, but I’m so glad I finally did. The back makes me think very much […]
Mondrian, Composition with Grid 2 (1915), Artifact
This 153 piece Artifact puzzle is, unsurprisingly, a lot harder than the number of pieces would suggest. Mondrian‘s “Composition with Grid 2” is basically about 80 rectangles in various shades of blue-grey and brown-grey, over the eponymous blue grid … I really liked it. … The Artifact description calls this “calming blue”. If you look […]

Birches in Bits, Leanne Poellinger
“Birches in Bits” by Leanne Poellinger, from Anthology Puzzles – 83 pieces, 4.5 x 5.7″.
Mayan Calendar
Mayan Calendar from Adawoo Puzzle, via Etsy. I paid too much for this … it is the quite thin, direct-printed, shaped, laser-cut style that we see so much of for as low as $5 … That said, it was a fun challenge, solved mostly by shape but sometimes with color / pattern as a guide. […]
Anthology, She Loves to Read, Leanne Poellinger
I did this, while Ash was doing art, and also helping me with the puzzle …. Anthology Puzzles, “She Loves to Read” art by Leanne Poellinger, in 125 very tiny pieces, 4.5 x 5.7″ :

Fall Bounty Wreath
A super sweet and fun little 63-piece puzzle, “Fall Bounty Wreath”, art by Parker Fulton, #3249-1, from Elms / Waterford, via Hoefnagel. I did it while Ash did art, but Ash put in a couple of key pieces, thus rendering it a dual effort.
Moonlight Falcon by Oxana Zaika
Nautilus discontinued this puzzle, “Moonlight Falcon” by Oxana Zaika, and I was wondering why, because it’s such a fabulous image — licensing for the image? or, perhaps the figural of the horseback guy with the scimitar a little too orientalist and problematic? Regardless, the image is fabulous, and I was excited by all the fun […]
Bewilderness, Majestic III by Deepti Agrawal Mittal
Beautiful elephant puzzle, “Majestic III“, by Deepti Agrawal Mittal, from Bewilderness Puzzles. Ash and I started it a while back, couldn’t finish it, had to disassemble. Then we started it again last weekend, with a travel board, and were able to finish it. This wooden jigsaw puzzle is cut with our very own geometric piece […]
Carnival in Venice, Dreamton
I got “Carnival in Venice” from Dreamton (available via etsy at https://www.etsy.com/shop/DREAMTON) and was excited to put it together. Very pretty cutting design, with lots of fleur-de-lis and similar sorts of formal, fluid symbols. An interesting trident interlock. And a really fun border. The pieces are a thin composite wood; I got the 200-piece (12″x8″) […]
Anthology Puzzles, Alphonse Mucha Zodiac
Second Anthology puzzle in a pack from Hoefnagel, this time, an Alphonse Mucha (1860-1939) piece, an 1897 zodiac poster for La Plume. (The clean copy below is from Wikimedia.) Even though this was a standard puzzle cut, I ended up enjoying the puzzle assembly. Interestingly, the image used for the puzzle is not the same […]

Liberty, Dry Martini by Yulia Drobova
A fun Liberty graphic art puzzle, “Dry Martini“, via Hoefnagel. I thought it might be a little difficult, with large areas of dark color, but the background actually has dark red blobs, on black, so the large swath is broken up quite a bit. I still ended up with a pile of dark colored pieces, […]
