Mazed

Finished the gorgeous dragon puzzle yesterday.



And I've run out of Liberty puzzles. My number hasn't come up yet, and it takes a week to cut, and some days to ship.  What next?  The images I love best have pleasant but unthrilling cuts; while the really exciting cuts tend to have contemporary art that doesn't float my boat.

The Birth of Venus does have some pretty toys in it.  This has Art Nouveau edges and a swarm of bicycles.  I love the ripples and reflections in this Monet waterlilies, though Impressionism isn't my thing.  Love the centaur, nymph, and faun in this crepuscular Maxfield Parrish.  This has Dr. Seuss unicorns.  This calligraphic carpet page is amazingly difficult, but it's too yellow for my blueness.  Stunning ocean life, but I've just  done a sea-themed puzzle.  I like that ox-cart!  I adore these swans, but the puzzle is tiny.  And this picture is silly, but just look at those monster!  And that labyrinth sun!

For now, I have some lesser Wentworth jigsaws with beautiful images but much duller cuts. I guess I could do Hunters in the Snow, for the imagined chill.
