Things to Note

The museum does not specify the actual dimensions of the picture. For our puzzle I have divided the picture into 10 pieces. Height 5.5 inches by 11 inches width. Although the picture was originally painted as a portrait the most practical way to arrive at our required number was to divide it was into landscape slices – see above.

Whilst there is no restriction in your painting medium bright bold colours would follow the artists intension, think David Hockney. The main object is for the pieces to match up so careful placement is suggested, especially at the edges.  Our final picture, when all the pieces have been completed,  will be 27.5 inches height and 22 inches wide.

If you go online  you will see that I have cropped the top slightly to get to a workable size.

Hilary Pecis has a slightly whimsical style. The nature of each object is more important to her than an actual geometric copy.

If you want to match her colours use the picture on the blog as matching with printing ink is very difficult. However, by way of consolation, the picture of your piece is actual size.

One additional thing to note . The pieces were divided by yellow lines to enable cutting. If any of these lines appear at the edge of your piece ignore them.

 

Best of luck.
