Woodland Wonders, 1977 , by Charley Harper
Ever a conservationist, Charley Harper (American, 1922-2007)
transported viewers into the natural world via lively but
self-described flat images that dont lay claim to the third
dimension. Rather, his paintings of forest fauna and flora,
colorful canyons, teeming coral reefs, and, above all,
brilliant birds, emphasize hard-edged simplicity. Harpers
simple geometric shapes, patterns, and vivid colors
succinctly express the essence of each creature he portrayed.
Harpers posters have been published by more than fifty
nature- and conservation-oriented organizations, including
this one, his first, for the Cincinnati Nature Center in
1977. They have become some of his most enjoyed works -
skillful and playful menageries of local wildlife.
Thoughtfully conceived and engagingly intricate,
Pomegranates 1,000-piece jigsaw puzzles combine superb color
reproduction, stunning and unusual images, and sturdy
construction to delight generations of novice and veteran
puzzleworkers.
