Temple of The Jaguar 1000-Piece Puzzle
Designed by Rod Frederick, this Puzzle marks the revival of the cherished Pastime Puzzle brand, featuring the return of unique puzzle piece shapes called Whimsies. What Are Jigsaw Whimsy Pieces? "Whimsies" add a whole new level to this popular indoor pastime and can make a puzzle a lot more fun. Whimsies are puzzle pieces cut into specific recognizable shapes, like flowers or animals. They got their name because they were originally cut according to the whims of the puzzle craftsman. Born in Salem, Oregon, Frederick's fascination with animals stems from his childhood. When he was a second-grader, he was given a copy of the late Roger Tory Peterson's Field Guide to the Birds. The appreciation he developed for the wilderness early in his life has never waned, it has continually intensified. He finds that when he's painting, he can't wait to get back into the wilderness to observe animals. When he's outside, surrounded by nature, he's anxious to get back to his studio so he can paint it.
