Riassunto

If you enjoy art or optical illusions, this is a book for you. Using over 52 new optical illusions, this book opens a visual doorway to artists use of illusions. Successfully converting what we see into flat, static artwork requires the use of illusionary tools like perspective, scale, and vanishing point. These tools are employed in varying degrees of success by artists, engineers, and mathematicians to depict our three dimensional in-motion world.The art represented in this book attempts to reduce these tools to their basic optical illusions. When successful this gives the viewer a pure representation of the illusion.This success of this work can be measured in the knowledge gained by defining and understanding artists use of optical illusions.

Early in the new millennium, after the PC renaissance ebbed, he returned to his artistic roots. He brought the drafting and design software he helped create with him. This became an electronic sketch pad for exploring for new and refining old optical illusions. Skilled use of these computer based tools allowed the simplification of optical illusions to their most basic forms. "I hope you enjoy all the illusions. GR
