Puzzle Description:

Super-easy puzzle (not enough white, I know) but I'm trying to see if I can translate iconic images into pbn puzzles. Thoughts?

I had no idea it was the cover of The Great Gatsby. But it definitely is. Not bad at all.

Some of the black swirly lines on the face/hair, and a little more work around the eyes would have sharpened the overall effect. Really good effort, though. Interesting idea.

An interesting subject that made a nice puzzle. It wasn't too easy, just enough challenge toward the end to make it fun.

Here is a link to info about the art. Click on the small image to see the enlargement:

I think this artwork is not a great candidate for adapting into a PBN. Not only does it not contain enough white space, but it is difficult to get the detail at the lower right corner.
