Optical Illusions Art Collection #2

Spooky.	Sponsored links

Impossible Shape

Many teachers visit this site looking for optical illusions to put in their lesson plans. This is a perfect example of an optical illusion that can be drawn. It's another shape in the optical illusions collection that will twist and turn in your mind. The three dots will appear to be inside the object if you scan it from left to right, but then they'll appear to be on the outside of this impossible shape if you scan it with your eyes from the right to left!

Sometimes, you'll see a similar picture with the "devil's pitchfork" showing that the trident cannot really insert into the three holes, because the trident is shown in a similar way.

Best of the Best (our newest original optical illusions)
	Moving Backgrounds It moves! You must zoom in to get the full illusion. You'll see the rings rotate, even though they are not moving at all. We've created several sizes so you can use as your desktop background.
	9/13/2011 - Floating Wood Blocks Video Created these floating wooden blocks and attached them to a globe. Watch the video and see how the blocks follow the camera! Pretty amazing! » Continue to view the video...
	Moving Red Spiral - 7/27/2011 Sometimes, while I'm just playing around in Photoshop, something appears, as if by magic. This illusion was one of those that just jumps off the page. It's a large red spiral on a purple background that appears to jump and move. Works better for some people than others, but if you like the moving illusions, you'll love it! » Continue to see the moving spiral image...
	Same Shade Diamonds Wow! It will look like the diamonds on the top are much darker than the diamonds on the bottom. You won't believe how amazing this incredible optical illusion is.
	The Obama Illusion We made this original Barack Obama Illusion and then we made it famous! Stare for about 30 seconds and you'll see his ghostly image appear on the wall! » Continue and see a ghostly image...
