It has been a long time since I dedicated an entry to a specific illustration and today is the perfect time for this piece that I will try to make you use part of gray matter of your brain to try to figure out the optical effect behind it.
How to Live Aligned with magically the artist takes the poor fox and therefore calls the work 'Don't catch me'. It is Katy Lipscomb who wants to confuse your mind for a few moments so that you focus on the details and discover the game of artifice that is behind her clever and skillful way of upsetting us and leaving us a little astonished.
The illusion creates confusion that defies to our minds finding it difficult to separate truth from fiction. Therefore, it can become quite an odyssey to separate what is fiction from what is reality.
Well, we are going to remove doubts from those restless minds who want to know the magic that is behind this poor fox that is taken by the skilled artist. The fox is a trim of a drawing kept on a background paper that allows, from the perspective in which the photograph is taken, to seem that the poor animal is being collected from the painting itself.
Surely it has been thought that half of the body was drawn and the other was painted in a special perspective, like those that we sometimes find on the streets and that stand out from a specific position as if it were 3D in reality. But no, the effect is simpler than it seems, and it also gives it a greater ability by not having to break your head a lot to leave us surprised.
I leave you with the instagram of this artist that has the color as its great entity and more than 230.000 followers in that social network. As well don't miss these optical illusions.
