Stag in a Patterned Winter Grove

Jigsaw Puzzle | 252/520 pieces | Vertical composition showing a lone stag partially concealed among tall, slender pine trunks. The piece uses fine pen-and-ink linework and dense stippling to render tree bark, foliage and the stag's textured hide, combined with soft watercolor washes that create translucent layers of blue-gray over a pale beige ground. A cracked, mosaic-like pattern overlays parts of the snow-covered floor, and repeated vertical trunks form a rhythmic ornamental structure across the image. Overall technique: ink stippling, line drawing and watercolor layering with subtle digital compositing of textures.
