Development process of a Van Gogh Collage, Grafika, 1000 pcs.

 It is my pleasure to be able to show 15 masterpieces by Vincent Van Gogh on one jigsaw puzzle. The puzzle is on loan, a travelling puzzle. For many years now, our forum has offered the opportunity to send puzzles on a journey. Sometimes it is a single jigsaw puzzle, sometimes it is a package with several puzzles (there have even been packages with many finger exercises for the mega marathons).

 With travelling puzzles, the person who sends them on their journey decides whether, for example, the last piece should be signed with the date and nickname.

There have been travelling puzzles that have lasted more than a decade (and are still going) – and travelling puzzles that are over after just a few stops.

This package consists of three jigsaw puzzles, a collage 


 and two other works by Van Gogh: The Church in Auvers-sur-Oise, 1890 + Red Vineyard at Arles, 1890

 I have decided to only do the collage because it really fascinates me ... and here we are

Start was on the 9th February. Assorting frames + the sky and assembling the signature

The outer frame was abit tricky due to false-fits

I assorted again: mainly alls yellow and red pieces. I guess it was a good idea
