  • Bubble Street, 1994 Daniel Merriam’s surreal artworks combine a romantic Victorian sensibility with a dreamlike imagination. Bubble Street is one of his fantasy-fueled paintings, in which riotous color presents a neighborhood street filled with bubbles, odd creatures, an old-timey car, architecturally magnificent homes, ane children enjoying a swing and a bike ride. there’s much, much more in this visual feast, reproduced for this 1,000-piece puzzle.

    Surreal. Romantic. Phantasmagorical. The artwork of Daniel Merriam (American, b. 1963) features ornately decorated Baroque buildings that are suspended in trees, crafted over waterfalls, and carried on the backs of elephants and cats. Likewise, the characters who populate Merriam’s wonderland dress extravagantly as they travel in hot air balloons and ride carriages and penny-farthing bicycles. In 2012, Merriam opened Bubble Street Gallery—an emporium celebrating creativity and the imagination in Sausalito, California—named after his painting Bubble Street. Merriam’s artwork hasn’t been confined to this gallery, though. His paintings have traveled in exhibitions across the United States, Europe, and the Middle East. As Merriam says, his audience is universal, limited only to “those who have the willingness to see with their hearts and minds.”

    Pomegranate is proud to produce jigsaw puzzles with thoughtfully conceived, engagingly intricate, and aesthetically appealing images on a solid interlocking format. The sturdy construction combined with the wide image selection and vibrant color reproduction will delight everyone from experts to first-time puzzlers.

      Merriam: Bubble Street

      I just finished this puzzle and it was one of my favorites! Pieces stick together nicely and are thick with a rich color even though most of it is pastel. There are many hidden details and it was fun from start to finish.

      I have just started this puzzle but first impressions are very good. It is well packaged with a zip top plastic bag in a sturdy box. The pieces are thick and the colors while pastel are rich in tone. The pieces fit together nicely and you can easily move joined sections without them separating. The border was easily defined and is easy to complete. I look forward to the challenge of completing the more intricate sections. Pomegranate makes lovely, quality puzzles.

      Don't be fooled by the soft pastels. IN ADDITION TO HIDDEN, CREEPY FACES, THIS TAKES A LOT OF WORK AND PATIENCE.
