Kindest Regards!

Some of the pictures Bandit posted remind me of the work of Max Escher, a favorite artist of mine.

Brian, the illusion you posted made me dizzy! Man, that would make some great wallpaper!

all those circles spinning. that was like getting on the tilt a whirl.
I like Escher too. Some neat art by him.

there's something weirdly gross-looking about that illusion. might be all the green and yellow. cool, though.

I, Brian,

That one is weirdly organic--felt like I was looking into a digestive tract or alien egg hatchery.

Bandit, many cool pictures--thanks for starting this thread

Re: Pictures that play with your Mind

Anyone ever hear of this before?






Convicted forger A. Schiller was serving his time in Sing
Sing prison in the late 1800s when guards found him dead in
his cell. On his body they found seven regular straight pins
whose heads measured the typical 47/1000ths of an inch or
1.17 millimeters in diameter. Under 500 magnification it was
found that the tiny etchings seen on the heads of the pins
were the words to The Lord's Prayer, which is 65 words and
254 letters long. Of the seven pins, six were silver and one
was gold - the gold pin's prayer was flawless and a true
masterpiece. Schiller had spent the last 25 years of his life
creating the pins, using a tool too small to be seen by the
naked eye. It is estimated that it took 1,863 sepatate carving
strokes to make it. Schiller went blind because of his

artwork.

Re: Pictures that play with your Mind

when you have 20 minutes to kill, this site has some interesting art where you click the pic and see what is drawn upside down and sideways. Some neat illusions and hidden pics in the art.
hope you like it.
