The Lighthouses of DelMarVa puzzle by artist Donna Elias is a collage of lighthouses found in Delaware, Maryland and Virginia. In short, this 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle is a rewarding challenge.
About the Artwork
The DelMarVa Peninsula is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, the Chesapeake Bay and the Delaware Bay. Because of that, it has a rich history of lighthouses.
In addition, each lighthouse in the collage has its own shape, colors and character. As a result, every one is a small puzzle of its own.
Donna Elias’s soft watercolor style gives every lighthouse a gentle, inviting feel.
If you enjoy this design, be sure to look at Lighthouses of New Jersey and Lighthouses of Maine, also by Donna Elias.
Where to Start
Start with the border, then build each lighthouse one at a time, using its stripes and colors as a guide, since it stands out right away. Next, work on the shorelines. After that, piece together the water. Finally, fill in the background, sorting those pieces by shade.
