Based on an abstract collage that I created in 2015 for an exhibit "Celebrating the Human Spirit " and sold the following year. Here's how the collage actually looks: https://painterlycollage.wordpress.com/2015/11/29/ode-to-joy/ (Beware, the link is a SPOILER.)

The ratings at the time I solved it were totally inappropriate. Quality: 1 Difficulty: 5 This is a great puzzle and a very nice design. I was curious because of the rating and followed the link which made me decide to solve it. It's a bit tricky, but not all that hard. Her collage is very beautiful but not that much of a spoiler. I wish she had come up with a different name because all too often when someone names their puzzle "Abstract" is is more often than not just a mindless doodle.

This is how it's done! This is what abstract is supposed to mean. And it is so visually interesting. And I haven't even gotten into describing the original design which this puzzle was based on. All around, I loved the color logic, and the picture was rewarding like abstract is supposed to be. Well done, my fellow abstract artist/fan. Well done.

This is absolutely beautiful!

So glad to see this excellent puzzle is recovering from the bad ratings it first received.

Beautiful! The original is nicer, of course. :)

Very nice! I wasn't going to waste my time on another 'abstact' but I always read the comments anyway and I'm so glad I did! I liked this puzzle! And the art it was based on.

Thank you for all the compliments! In response to comments I modified the title and the description. Hopefully a title that is more than just "Abstract" will be more appealing.
