leshko Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 (edited) I and my customer really liked the picture of the Russian artist Andrei Shishkin "Gamblers". I contacted the author and received his permission to make this wooden jigsaw puzzle. The result seems to be interesting. For figures, I applied the theme of playing cards of different styles and eras. You can visit the artist’s website and see many other paintings https://a-shishkin.ru/ I pasted 2 parts of the picture onto a plywood sheet. The middle will be cut two layers together. My plaing cards patterns: Two parts of the picture are precisely calibrated according to the marking and fixed together with nails. This is a couple of characters from the paintings of Andrei Shishkin: Edited December 6, 2019 by leshko amazingkevin, meflick, JimErn and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leshko Posted December 6, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 Thanks! 6 hours ago, amazingkevin said: Wonder what the IQ is of . Honestly, I do not know. The fashion for calculating IQ came to us not so long ago, only about 15-20 years ago. I had already graduated from university by then.
