COLLECTION NO. 1
We were immediately captivated by the synthesis of color and dialogue in Shawna X’s eerie depiction of a sunset swim. Beneath the surface of this boldly graphic work lies an undercurrent of dark humor — are we piecing together a pool float or a predator? We’ll let you decide.

I loved this puzzle. Completed in a couple evenings. Very relaxing. I especially enjoyed it while listening to "The Henna Artist".
This puzzle is beautiful. The colors are so deep. The only problem is it took my granddaughter about 45min. to put together. She still loved it.
These puzzles are wonderful. The colors are so exciting. My granddaughter was thrilled when she opened the package. I buy puzzles for her all the time. These undoubtedly got the best response.
This was very enjoyable to work on--not too hard or too easy, and I love the image. It interlocks well so that when it was finished I could pick it up by one edge and carry it to another table to display. There was one piece where the cardboard and the paper with the image had completely separated so that the two parts were loose in the bag when I opened it, but I was able to reunite them and glue them back together, so all was well.
I love the design and the puzzle itself is matte (love - less light reflecting off it). The pieces fit together well and the texture is velvety smooth. Everything about this puzzle is a 10/10.
