#1 in Puzzles

Description


Includes 3 mini puzzles:
Walter by Keitha McClocklin
In Good Company by Jamie McCallum
I Am by Alex Fong

Walter
Keitha McClocklin is an award-winning Canadian contemporary artist working in a range of disciplines including painting, printmaking, and drawing – often weaving techniques from one discipline to another. Her abstract realism style is characterized by the use of layers, colour, and mixed media, including pastel, ink, acrylic, cold wax, and oil. She fluidly moves between figurative, landscape, and abstraction. Keitha’s compositions are grounded in comprehensive knowledge of art history, math and grids.
She creates from her studio nestled in the Riversdale neighbourhood of Saskatoon. Her family roots can be traced across Canada, back to New Brunswick, Manitoba, British Columbia, Ontario, and Saskatchewan

In Good Company
Jamie McCallum grew up on a cattle ranch just south of Brandon, Manitoba, where she developed a deep appreciation for the prairies. After studying graphic design in North Dakota, McCallum moved to British Columbia where she practiced her art alongside friend and mentor, Angela Morgan. 
McCallum’s whimsical paintings push visual proportions, challenging the boundaries of colour, form, and texture with sensuous oil paints. Her work is reflective of her roots to the prairies and the farm girl she's always been.

I Am
Immerse yourself in the captivating world of Canadian watercolor artist Alex Fong with this enchanting "I Am" mini puzzle. Celebrated for his kaleidoscope of light and color, Fong's whimsical style brings nature's majesty to life with a touch of magic. As you assemble each piece, watch as the elk's majestic spirit emerges from a vibrant landscape, adorned with the artist's signature "confetti" – a celebration of life's simple joys. Let the translucent washes and playful details transport you to a realm where imagination knows no bounds

    Great puzzles for all ages!

    We had an absolute ball putting together some of these puzzles! What I really love about these is the size of the puzzle pieces, they are really easy to handle and there’s no struggle picking them up, unlike other puzzles. This was great for all ages, we enjoyed it with our 11 year old. It didn’t take too long to complete and was fun and engaging. The artwork of the puzzle is absolutely beautiful.

    Super fun stuff!

    I got this fun PR Package from @stumpcraft
    and we had so much fun playing this. It took a while for us to finish this but trust me it was totally worth it!
    It is also a great idea if you have kids then you can play with them to reduce their screen time :)

    This PR includes three mini puzzle sets, and each puzzle was crafted by a Canadian Artist!

    ● Walter by Keitha McClocklin
    ● In Good Company by Jamie McCallum
    ● I Am by Alex Fong

    I Am:
    With the help of this entrancing, "I Am" mini-puzzle, you may fully immerse yourself in the fascinating universe of Canadian watercolour artist Alex Fong. Fong, renowned for his kaleidoscope of colour and light, uses a whimsical approach that adds a magical touch to the majesty of nature. As you put each piece together, see how the elk's powerful spirit rises from a colourful scene, embellished with the artist's distinctive "confetti"—a celebration of the small pleasures in life. Allow yourself to be transported to a world where the possibilities are endless by the transparent washes and whimsical touches.


    Walter:
    Award-winning Canadian contemporary artist Keitha McClocklin works in a variety of media, such as painting, printmaking, and drawing, frequently fusing methods from one medium to another. Her use of layering, colour, and mixed media—pastel, ink, acrylic, cold wax, and oil—defines her abstract realism approach. She switches between abstract, landscape, and figurative painting with ease.

    In Good Company:
    Jamie McCallum uses sensuous oil paints to push the limits of colour, form, and texture in his humorous works, which also challenge visual proportions. Her art is a reflection of her upbringing on a farm and her prairie heritage.


    Thank you so much @stumpcraft @butterlyfor this fun stuff. we truly enjoyed it!

    Beautiful well made puzzles

    The puzzles are very vivid and beautiful, my daughter and I love painting and we enjoyed putting them together. The artist have inspired us to paint more often and that is a bonus.

    Fun, Unique & Great Gift Idea!

    I think everything about this set and company is so fun and unique and this would make such a great gift for someone. I also love the library card sign out card situation, once I’m complete with all the puzzles I want to give the set to someone I know, perhaps family and see them figure out these puzzles.

    Unique and fun!

    Each puzzle was crafted by a Canadian Artist, and the pieces are crafted out of thick wood and come in these beautiful tins!

    These are challenging and fun to make. It took me several hours to complete all three, and it kept me entertained throughout!

    Different from traditional puzzle pieces, each piece is unique and features different shapes and sizes.

    Love puzzles, and want to try something more challenging and different? Definitely give @stumpcraft a try!

    A lot of fun activity!

    Upon opening the package, you'll notice the smell of burnt wood, which is normal for wooden puzzles due to the laser cutting process. The puzzle pieces are of high quality and they fit together perfectly. You will find special shapes like round or animals, and beware of false border pieces! It will confuse you as they can also fit in the middle so don't rely on straight cut pieces (see their website's FAQ for more helpful tips!)

    Keitha McClocklin's 70pc puzzle art 'Walter', with a difficulty level of 3 out of 5, took me an hour to complete. I was so lost that I finished it upside down, but it was a fun challenge! The next two puzzles, Jamie McCallum's 'In Good Company' (68pcs) and Alex Fong's 'I Am' (70pcs), both with 2 out of 5 difficulty, took me less than an hour each to finish. I didn't intend to finish them in one sitting, but I did! Doing these puzzles was a lot of fun, making it great for gifting, parties, or as a hobby.

    Fun yet challenging

    I admit the puzzles drove me a bit crazy, in a good way. You can't do them the traditional way by starting with the edges, so it's a learning curve, and once I got that I got stuck in. I love that the scent reminded me of morning fires when camping, it brought another layer of comfort and relaxation to the experience.

    Each piece is a delight, bright and vibrant, yet crispy detailed. I love the whimsies and have dis over all but one whimwham, so I still have some exploring to do!

    I also love that each puzzles has its own storage tin, and there's a little time card if I ever feel brave enough to try to race someone at them.

    Such a high quality piece

    We absolutely loved this set. Our family got to connect and build them together. I feel they were a step above other puzzles. They challenged us yet have us time to connect.
