This is a great conversation to be had. Thanks so much for pointing out that puzzle consumers have the choice to support living, working artists when they choose a puzzle!
And as companies get bigger, and have bigger budgets to advertise and produce cheaply due to their large volume production runs and use of AI, it puts “small batch” puzzle businesses at a further disadvantage. It gets harder and harder to compete. Our puzzles are so much more expensive. All we can do is put out the art we feel has value and that makes a great puzzle experience.

Thanks! I believe we all have the power to vote with our wallets and make choices that align with our values 😊
