Tiger Dollar Puzzle

A tiger walks across the picture with its head turned toward the viewer and its tongue curled over its nose in this 1000-piece puzzle, and up close its whole body turns out to be built from fragments of banknotes. Scraps of dollar bills, with their numerals, lettering and fine engraving, form the orange coat, the black stripes, the pale chest and the green ground around the cat.

A tiger made of money

From a distance the image reads as a single painted tiger, and only at close range do the notes appear, which turns assembly into a game on two levels: sorting by color first, then by the small details of each bill. The ground is a patchwork of green notes, while the tiger itself mixes orange, white and blue-gray tones. For a gentler way to put a tiger on paper, our guide on how to draw a tiger face starts from simple shapes. More scenes wait in our tiger puzzle collection.
