Oct 21 2023 - Optical Illusions

 

What do you think of optical illusions?  I've always enjoyed them.  The figure-ground shift images of of M.C. Esher's work has always been appealing.   TikTok creator Mia Yilin seems to have "discovered" optical illusion personality tests! The news media picks up these stories and repeats them - here's the newsmediaempire's coverage of this 'spot on' optical illusion that has exploded in popularity online to reveal what your reputation is and what your loved ones admire about your personality.  "This brainteaser was first shared on social media by the optical illusion specialist Mia Yilin, who has shocked users with her ability to read people’s personalities through her quirky psychological pictures." So I gave Google the test to find the sunflower seeds - that's the friendly personality and poor Google missed that one entirely and only found microscopic images of various things.  Not a sunflower seed in sight.   And how did that Daily Express article with a picture of Tom Hanks and a baby get associated with the two men vs sunflower seeds optical illusion? Another test of personality.

From the ridiculous to the sublime of Koi swimming.   Read more daily posts here: marilyncornwellblogspot.com Purchase works here: Fine Art America- marilyncornwell.com Redbubble - marilyncornwellart.ca

June 7 2021 - More Optical Illusions - What to Wear?

 

Don't think we are left out of the optical illusions of funny lips and tongue toys for dogs.  Here are a few foot options.  These are so strange and realistic that they are compelling to look at.  I thought of those t-shirts with the strange optical illusions and realized there is a style statement here. If we had this t-shirt what would you pair it with?    Which pair of shoes?  feet-boots or fish-flops. One for the rugged north look and the other for the surfer experience.   Pinterest has the full coverage of weird and crazy shoes HERE.  There are a lot of opportunities here with optical illusion t shirts. Today's image is the view through a broken window.
