Jazzy, Greg Paprocki, Ravensburger

Enjoyed the retro vibes of “Jazzy”, image by Greg Paprocki, 500-piece puzzle by Ravensburger, used in the 2024 World Jigsaw Puzzle Championships. Ash and I started it a while ago, put it on pause & tried to save most of the work we’d done, opened it up again today & found … well, *some* of […]

Ravensburger wooden, “Mysterious Owl” wooden owl

Ash and I did a little wooden puzzle from Ravensburger — “Mysterious Owl” — 150 pieces, “Have a hoot of a good time piecing together our 150-piece “Owl” Shaped Wooden puzzle and watch the hours fly by!” – 6.3″ x 8.7″ x 1.8″ I loved that it came in a paper bag. The whimsies were […]

Ravensburger “The Reading Room”

Eames Design Spectrum

A nice follow-up to the Eames Design Classics puzzle. Again, I enjoyed the varying patterns and colors. The Ravensburger puzzle pieces are regular and non-challenging, so this was a relaxation kind of puzzle. The chair on the inside — pointilist style — was the last section for me.

Eames Design Classics

Pretty easy 1000-piece puzzle, with lots of discrete elements, differentiable wood patterns and colors and types of line drawings. Lots of fun, though.

Ciruelo Cabral, White Dragon

It actually took me a while to figure out who the artist was for this — he signed the painting, but is not really credited anywhere that I could see on the Ravensburger site. 1000 pieces. Pretty difficult, actually, with the large blocks of similar colors. Ciruelo Cabral, Argentine fantasy artist. And, this white dragon […]
