This jigsaw puzzle titled Northern Splendor is based on the artwork of famed painter Kim Norlien. Two adult loons and their babies, one on the babies is riding around on the adults back, float along by some lily pads in a serine lake setting. There is a foggy mist hovering over the water in the distance. This image is a depiction of true northern splendor. Best known for creating scenes of beauty with breathtaking realism, Kim Norlien is one of America's most collected artists. He has exhibited his art in shows throughout the United States and his museum-quality originals are highly regarded by collectors. His masterful interplay of light and shadow celebrates the true, unblemished splendor of nature's wildlife and the beauty of the world around them. Each painting is painstakingly researched to ensure that every detail - whether it be architecture, landscape or wildlife is captured precisely as it would be found in nature.
