update: Finished! Whew. I will admit that I enjoyed the last third, which went quickly, the best. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This puzzle (from Hoefnagel<\/a>) is kicking my ass, a little, which I wasn’t quite expecting. Although maybe I should have, given the artwork! There’s some color line cutting, but I’m not sure that’s it — it’s the artwork in combination with the cutting, which has lots of odd angles to make the joins a little surprising. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am appreciating the challenge, given that the activity I am procrastinating is taxes. And, autumnal maple trees, with their glorious orange and yellow, are always welcome (even in spring). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
