Pop Art

I thought I'd put up a slightly different kind of puzzle today- this one is a puzzle I purchased from a bookstore which features the artwork of Andrew Rae. 

This design follows a Pop Art theme (as suggested by the title) and was a pleasure to do. It was fun working through the puzzle and discovering all the different references to the Pop Art genre. The best part was that you didn't even notice some of the details until you were actually piecing it together, simply because there are so many things to look at throughout the design.

I think there is a similar puzzle available that covers the Surrealism genre but I have not got it in my collection as yet.

I haven't done many puzzles from this brand but so far it hasn't disappointed. The pieces are sturdy and the quality is wonderful.

How are you going with your puzzling? Are you getting through some of the backlog of puzzles in your collection? I've just begun to do some of my smaller-count-pieced puzzles in the hope that getting them done quicker will reduce my to-do pile faster!

Pop Art (Comical Europe)

Brand: Ravensburger
Pieces: 1000
Size: 70cm x 50cm
Product Code:  195046

Here's another bright and fun one! 

When I first saw this Ravensburger puzzle, I couldn't go past the bright pop-art style. The old school illustration of a pretty damsel in distress and her cool-as-a-cucumber blonde 'superhero' is striking and instantly drew my attention. The design, which vaguely mimics the work of iconic pop artist Roy Lichtenstein, is simply made to stand out and draw the eye. 

You may have noticed that I've titled this puzzle as Pop Art (Comical Europe). On the box it is listed as Pop Art but I've also seen it titled as Comical Europe (including on the Ravensburger website). If you're looking to purchase this puzzle, just be aware that it could be listed under either title. I've put the title down as both just for this reason. 

This puzzle uses strong, bold colours and is of the high quality you'd expect from a Ravensburger puzzle. 
I highly recommend it for fans of the pop-art style, graphic novels and bright works of art.
