headache

Introduction to 2-Dimensional Art project. We had to make an optical illusion using a sharpie on a 12in x 12in piece of paper. I tried to duplicate another one I saw in the book, and completely screwed it up (what I came up with looks nothing like it). But I came out with something pretty neat. It gave me a headache making it and it gives me a headache looking at it.

Stuff to try:
-Look at the center for a few seconds
-Cross your eyes
-Cross your eyes so that you don't have double vision yet, just enough so that it is blurry
-If you have a bunch of free time and some paper and ink to waste... print it out then hold the paper parallel to the floor at eye level and look straight ahead... the squares seem to make an endless curvy line (doubt anyone will try this... but its just something one of my friends pointed out to me).

Anyway... it took a few weeks since I only had 45 minutes a day, a ruler, and a permanent marker.

enjoy!
