Puzzle #94 - "Wait... I'll be right back..."
Source Image ©2001 K. Chin Gallery

A very beautiful puzzle and one of the best I've made. A real masterwork. My Creative Style really let loose in the puzzle, there are so many neat pieces in the puzzle - the expanse of white space with just a few figurals enabled me to concentrate almost solely on the cutting style. The scalloped border is my first and in my opinion greatly enhances an already excellent puzzle. The interior (nonwhite) of this puzzle is cut in a completely different style - a dense Long Round! Edit: My Creative style still had quite a ways to go!

The print is hand signed by the late K. Chin in blue ink in the lower right, just to the left of his red seal.

I should have kept this one for my own collection, but financial needs beckoned.


The white pieces are cut in my Creative Style with Flow Curl emphasis
The interior pieces Long Round .... with interesting "hybrid pieces"


The Tiger, Horse with Rider and Rooster are mini-puzzles


There are five Treat Pieces and seven Figurals (the one second from the left is new)
The Observer (right) was interested in this puzzle!
