The Bold and the Beautiful Horse Jigsaw Puzzle

I was planning to give the animals a rest and do a nice scenic picture for a change but this jigsaw puzzle depicting an unusual horse oil painting caught my eye at an internet auction.
This 1000 piece oil painting of a horse has quite large brush strokes, making it more of a challenge than others I have done recently. Although there was no close up detail such as in that gorgeous Cats by Margaret jigsaw puzzle, the vibrant colours and flowing form of this picture certainly gives it a real feeling of life. The only downside is that it is from the cheap Surelox range. Yes, they are very cheap to indeed buy, but the thin pieces do not sit well together and often curl up a fair bit so although the picture might be a pleasure to assemble, the physical pieces are not so enjoyable to handle.

  4. Bold and Beautiful is the name of the jigsaw puzzle. Presumably describing the horse! It is available for sale on auctionvibe.com.au for only about $15 brand new unopened.
