Tropical Circular

Description

THE JIGSAW

Tropical is the 500 piece circular puzzle in our White Logo Collection. This vibrant paradise has been designed by the talented Claire McElfatrick, whose work is inspired by her world. Wherever she travels, shes drawn to anything with a pattern, interesting colours and texture. Her artwork is a mix of hand-drawn illustration, collage and Mac-based techniques.

Tropical is part of our range of design-led jigsaw puzzles, especially for adults. With the recent wave of young adults wanting to take a digital detox and refrain from using devices that can take over everyday life, puzzling is a popular pastime and an excellent way to relieve stress and focus on the present moment. The White Logo Collection is perfect for the new wave of puzzlers who are looking for more contemporary designs rather than traditional puzzle scenes.

As with all Gibsons jigsaws, we use 100% recycled puzzle board, FSC paper and work with the best artists from all around the world. The beautifully illustrated pieces are designed to fit perfectly together; in fact, we use the thickest puzzle board on the market.

About the Artist

Claire McElfatrick Born in Oxford in 1977, Claire grew up in Buckinghamshire, where she spent her childhood days doodling and painting surrounded by glorious countryside. She was never without her sketchbook and pencils and always dreamed of becoming an artist.

Claire studied Fashion and Textile Design at DeMontfort University Leicester and soon after graduating, landed her dream job as a greetings card designer for a leading UK publisher. After a successful 12-year career, she now happily freelances from her home studio in rural Northamptonshire, where she lives with her husband, two daughters and tabby cat, Huey.

She loves pottering around vintage shops and keeps a close eye on trends. When shes not designing, or running after her little monkeys, she loves to bake and indulge in her passion for films. Her artwork is a mix of hand drawn illustration, collage and Mac based techniques.
