Our Stories
Below you will find stories about the puzzles and suggestions for educational use.
Melvin the Moose
I tried for many years to get pictures of a Michigan moose. After developing my film from my Isle Royale trips I had lots of pictures of eyes looking out of the woods. Melvin was drawn from old memories.
Marshmallow the Raccoon
After a long day of rock climbing in Devils Lake Wisconsin, I came back to camp. Sitting on the picnic table was a large raccoon. He had "acquired" a brand new bag of marshmallows. I tried to chase him off, but he sat there and ate every marshmallow. So as long as he was posing, I drew my raccoon pattern.
Sheep
The ram puzzle is modeled after my sheep on the farm. His name was Chuck. When he "went to market" he became ground chuck.
