The Noisy Woods by Peter Loose - 500 piece jigsaw puzzle

Peter Loose is a self-taught artist who's known for his one-of-a-kind bird houses and     animal shaped dulcimers - as well as his signature bright and brash paintings featuring unconventional palettes and saturated, vivid, dot-filled surfaces. Loose arrived in Athens, GA in 1987 to begin working at the Athens Sandy Creek Nature Center. Drawing on his time as a naturalist, Peter's work reflects his deep love of animals and the natural world. Most depicted on repurposed, found objects like roofing shingles, old canvas, window screens, and discarded wooden boards.  In “The Noisy Woods” Loose was inspired while watching a pair of pileated woodpeckers build their nest in a tall dead pine saying, “the sounds of knocking and chipping were loud as were the sounds other birds and zooming insects.” Staying true to his connection with nature, Loose captures the vibrant energy of wildlife, seamlessly translating the rhythm of the woods into his art. “The Noisy Woods” is in the collection of Paul
