A collector was in my studio looking at paintings when he said to me: “I hope you won’t be offended but I think some of your paintings would make great jigsaw puzzles.” I wasn’t offended, my love for Brueghel came as a child, doing puzzles of his paintings. It me thinking about what images of mine would work. The best puzzles always had a large area with the same color which made it hard and fun to figure out; this came to mind.
