Ciro Marchetti studied art in London, followed by a career working in Europe and South America, where he cofounded what became the region's most significant graphic design agency.

He later transferred to the United States, where he opened a branch office based in Miami. In addition to managing his company, Ciro also gives workshops and lectures on digital imagery and illustration at the Fort Lauderdale Art Institute and continues to create his own visionary art.

The current content and style of his recent illustrations reflect his sources of interest and inspiration, from his early student days when he first came across the delicate pen and ink work of Arthur Rackham to the discovery in later years of the beautiful characters of James Christenson, and surrealistic dream images of Michael Parkes. These, combined with a personal collection of old mechanical instruments and artifacts such as compasses, theodolites, sextants, and kaleidoscopes, provide the inspiration to create richly detailed images that conjure up worlds of fantasy and imagination.

Famous for his best-selling tarot sets and zodiac images, his rich, intricate, and imaginative illustrations make for entrancing magical puzzles.

The perfect gift for wooden jigsaw puzzle lovers and fantasy art fans, this traditional adult wooden jigsaw puzzle can be done repeatedly. Our wooden jigsaw puzzle artists have included many animal and circus-shaped whimsy pieces that match the artwork's theme, and we have integrated them in ways that will delight and surprise you as you put the wooden jigsaw puzzle together.
