These dot puzzles are all grown up, with 1,001 numbered dots in each one. Diligence and care are required (not to mention a fine point pen, and maybe a small straight edge), but once you get "in the zone," they're really quite relaxing—and rewarding too, as the image emerges. Then you can break out the markers, paints, or colored pencils to bring each subject to life.

Sweet, pretty, and charming, the pin-up girls Gil Elvgren painted in the mid 20th century were hugely popular, and his work is highly prized among enthusiasts and collectors. Try your hand at more than 40 "Elvgren girls" with these dot puzzles, which use colored dots to help you navigate each area.
