Jay Hollis designs and cuts one-of-a-kind wooden jigsaw puzzles.
Influenced by the early jigsaw puzzle makers of the Great Depression, he strives
to create the finest and most imaginative puzzles available anywhere today.
Hollis' puzzles embody a keen and exacting eye for detail, composition,
and graphic presentation from his traning as an architect. He enjoys
challenging his audience by adding 'tricks of the trade' to every puzzle.
The puzzles are of 1/4 inch mahogany plywood, and every piece is
cut freehand, using a specially designed scroll saw. The intricate cuts
are achieved by using scroll saw blades machined as thin as a horse hair.
All puzzles include 'whimsies', whimsical figures that add delight and
humor to the overall composition. In addition, every puzzle includes
a signature piece which is a silhouette of Bogart,
Hollis' Portuguese water dog, for whom his company is proudly named.
