BRENDA HILLMAN'S UNIQUE JIGSAW PUZZLES

"Village Life", one of four designs.

Former Plainfield resident, artist and educator Brenda Hillman (who has relocated to the Atlanta area) has for years felt the need to address a void in educational materials for African American youngsters and has just introduced a limited edition of four jigsaw puzzles featuring ethnic themes.

The puzzles, challenging enough for adults, but enjoyable to children are also recommended for therapeutic activity and with senior citizen groups. Each puzzle is composed of 513 pieces, measures 15"x22" and is suitable for framing.

Available for Christmas and Kwanzaa gift-giving or for Black History Month celebrations, the puzzles may be purchased online for $22.99 each.

Visit the artist's website at www.brendahillmanart.com/.
