Thanks, JoDeen! I was glad it turned out to be line logic solvable, too.#5: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Aug 9, 2012
And I know exactly the painting you mean. :)
Wonderful puzzle. We all owe a huge debt of gratitude to Jan for giving us so many hours of pleasure. What a dedicated man. How many of you remember logging on to unixpapa to solve puzzles?#6: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Aug 9, 2012 [SPOILER]

Great puzzle, Kristen. Thank you so much Jan for making this site available and for enhancing it. Gotta admit, I greatly prefer either difficult LLS or alternative logic to blots. I haven't tried making one yet. Maybe I'll change my mind. The "blot" is the flavor of the day, and I guess I have to live with it.#8: Jason Wodicka (jwodicka) on Aug 9, 2012
The solve itself is just a pleasure on this puzzle, and the image makes it even more enjoyable. Very, very well done, and surprisingly challenging!#9: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Aug 10, 2012

Thanks. And thanks to Jan for the site.
wow...very cool how you did that! a few lines that looks like nothing as you're solving turns out into a very artistic image. loved it! thank you K, and thanks to Jan for making it all possible!#18: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Aug 11, 2012
Thanks! I lucked out with this one. I just needed to thicken his back a little to make it solvable; otherwise, I was able to keep my original design.#19: Teresa K (fasstar) on Aug 12, 2012
Luck? Maybe. You are a gifted artist and you put these blots and pixels in just the right place. Great detail, amazing image, and a most enjoyable solve. Brava!#20: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Aug 12, 2012
Aw, shucks.#21: valerie o..travis (bigblue) on Aug 14, 2012

Nice puzzle, Kristen!#23: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Aug 16, 2012
It would have been just as nice without those few blots.
I wonder what kind of evaluation you would get from someone who thinks you're one of my "girlfriends"... :}
Jan likes it, and I've gotten very favorable comments. That's all the accolades I need. :)#24: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Aug 19, 2012

Thanks, Tom :)#26: Nancy (nbarsi) on Aug 21, 2012
Yes, Kristen Congratulation! An amazing solve and terrific surprise image. I hadn't the foggiest idea until the end, then it popped right off the screen. A fitting tribute.#27: Velma Warren (Shiro) on Oct 19, 2018
