Flurry of Wildflowers by Erin Hanson. Design by David Figueiras and Gema Palacio. 553 pieces. Made by Artifact Puzzles.

We love Erin Hanson's paintings, so any puzzle featuring one is a must-do for us.

This has about as high a piece count as we like to go these days. With two people, it took about five hours maybe, spread over three days. A good eye for color really helps in the early stages, and we always felt we were making slow but steady progress.

The larger piece count allowed the designers to include big multi-piece "whimsy" flowers, as well as groupings of smaller whimsies around the edge. It's difficult to figure out what's happening with these as you piece the puzzle together, but you appreciate the artistry towards the end.

All in all, one of our favorite puzzles from Artifact.
