About the Puzzle

The Secret Garden features a captivating acrylic painting completed in 2019 by Bay Area artist Vera Tour. 

Blending vibrant natural motifs with surrealistic detail, the image in this 500-piece jigsaw puzzle invites you into an imaginative inner world of calm and creativity.

According to the artist, this piece “represents a safe space of soul's refuge, calm, replenishment, and creative inspiration.” The lush, dreamlike elements and use of vivid color make it a deeply meditative and satisfying puzzle to complete.
