St Nicholas Abbey - 1000pc Jigsaw Puzzle by Pomegranate

St Nicholas Abbey—Gates of Old, 2019 Enter the irresistible walkway into Darlene Kulig’s St Nicholas Abbey. Electrically bright and festooned with giant flora, this painting draws on her signature style, which she refers to as semi-abstracted spirited landscape. The image of the abbey reproduced for this 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle was inspired by her travels in Barbados, and it may in turn inspire you to travel—once you finish this puzzle, of course..

Where the rainbow meets the mountains, you’ll find the art of Darlene Kulig (Canadian, b. 1961). Her semi-abstracted spirited landscapes celebrate nature in saturated color. Inspired by the loss of a great friend, oboist Cynthia Steljes, Kulig turned to painting her signature landscapes—joyful, bright, peaceful, and spotted with champagne bubbles that effervesce from the earth. Kulig’s paintings build on decades of experience as a graphic designer. “The designer in me loves simple shape and bold color while the painter in me explores light, rhythm, and personal connection,” she says. She takes numerous photographs when traveling and uses them as a basis for details in her work. Kulig lives in Toronto and is a member of the Etobicoke Art Group and Neilson Park Creative Centre.
