Working towards the 2010 goal of 5000 puzzle pieces, puzzle two has been completed.
As you can see in the photo, our kitty, Gunner, is exhausted after an afternoon of puzzling. Actually, Lisa did the majority of this puzzle.
This puzzle is MasterPieces Puzzle Company’s “Besides Still Waters”, #70911. A painting by Kim Norlien. I purchased this puzzle at WalMart last year. I think it was around $9.00US.
It is a 1000 piece panoramic that measures 39″x13″. The image portrayed, a log cabin on a tranquil lake , backed by woods, is a personal dream of mine. Someday that dream will become reality, but until then, 1000 piece puzzles will have to do.
The puzzle was more challenging to assemble because many of the brush strokes are very similar in color tones and mixed horizontal and vertical alignment.
While doing some research on masterpiecesinc.com, I noticed they have a 1000 pc. panoramic Grist Mill puzzle. Grist Mills (in particular), and non-electric technologies in general , are of great interest to me. This will most likely be the next puzzle in the rotation.
Whichever puzzle ends up being puzzle 03, it probably won’t get started until late summer.
By the way, this is another fine product proudly Made in USA.
I have no affiliation with MasterPieces Puzzle Co. or Kim Norlien.
