This popular piece of work from artist Octavio Ocampo is as much a puzzle as it is an illusion.

There are many different faces in the picture, some are even up in the sky. See if you can find them all. ( More... )

Solo para Siempre Category: Illusion Art | Added: May 26, 2009 | 3 comments
This amazing piece of illusion artwork from artist Octavio Ocampo is called "Forever Always" in English.

Like the Hermann illusion the image consists of a grid of black squares divided by lighter colored lines, however unlike the Hermann illusion this one has white circles already present at the intersections. This time when you stare at the image the white circles appear to have black dots appearing inside them. ( More... )

Warped Dotted Surface Category: Moving Images | Added: May 26, 2009 | 4 comments
This headache inducing illusion is simply a static image of a green background with a series of blue dots, however when you look at it the whole thing appears to move and warp in a wave-like fashion. ( More... )
