Mike Wilks (British, b. 1947) The Letter B, 1982 From The Ultimate Alphabet A boisterous beauty besprinkled with 542 representations of the letter B from artist Mike Wilks’s brush, this painting is the second from his best-selling book The Ultimate Alphabet (released by Pomegranate in 2015 as The Ultimate Alphabet: Complete Edition). Wilks writes, “Wander through this picture and attempt to find a big building built from lots of Bs, a balustrade, a boomerang, a booth complete with a buxom barmaid, various buttons, badges, braids, bows, and beads, a blond baby with a baffling blemish on its bib, an ecclesiastical gentleman having as much trouble seeing as the one immediately behind him, and beds of more than one variety.” Can you find all of the B words depicted here? If not, check out the list and key included with this brain-bending 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle.
