Can You Recognize Her? Paradoxymoron Painting. Carl Warner’s Food Landscapes or “Foodscapes” At first glance, these images look like painted landscapes, including towering hills, mad sea and stormy weather in the background.
However, if you look a little more closely you will see that the sea and storm were made of cabbage, in other photo trees are broccoli and the hills are baked potatoes. These aren’t paintings but true photos! Also everything you can see in the photograph is made of real food! Pictures were photographed by Carl Warner, a photographer who works in London, and who made specialty of these food landscapes or how I like to call them – ‘foodscapes‘. In recent years he has been commissioned by many advertising agencies throughout Europe to produce his distinctive images for clients in the food industry. The process is very time consuming, and so the food quickly wilts under the lights. Carl says “I tend to draw a very conventional landscape as I need to fool the viewer into thinking it is a real scene at first glance. Creative Drawings Illusion Collection.
Ramy Jaber found these amazing lifelike pictures, and shared them with us.
Now this is what creative drawing means! There are 4 images posted inside this collection, but Ramy submitted even more examples. If you like this post, be sure to let me know so I can publish the rest as well. Till now we had very few simmilar illusions. Best I can come up with is the Josh Summers work, and Dr. Wallace and Gromit: 20th Anniversary. Shrink’s Card Optical Illusion. Can You Believe These Are Flat? Check out these 3D pencil drawings I just stumbled upon!
They were done by a Chilean artist who calls himself “Fredo”. He is “just” an ordinary 17-year-old prodigy, who draws objects that look like they’re about to jump off the page! Just by looking at his art, can you differentiate what’s real and what’s not? It takes Fredo anywhere from just 30 minutes, to as much as few months to create a single piece! Though there is no doubt he has been inspired by artists, such as M.C. Incredible Paintings of Vintage Photos That Are Optical Illusions. If you ask yourself why I have decided to feature some “ordinary vintage photos” on an optical illusions blog, think again.
Work below is just a fraction of Spanish artist Paco Pomet’s portfolio. If you inspect the photos more closely, you’ll soon realize they’re in fact stunning oil paintings that are “just” a reproductions of vintage photographs. Not only do the works use a monochromatic palette and photo real style (which in itself I find quite impressive!) — but each of Pomet’s paintings includes something out of the ordinary that isn’t always recognizable at first glance. His illusions transform the vintage photos into something quite unexpected. Come With A Story, Leave With Another. The best thing about a library is that when you’re done reading one book, you can just trade it in for another.
This way, you never have to run out of new titles to enjoy and you never have to pay a cent for the privilege of borrowing a book – provided you return your rentals on time. But how do you advertise that benefit without actually spelling it out to your target audience? Well, Colombia advertising company Lowe/SSP3 found a pretty good way to do so for the Colsubsidio Book Exchange with these clever ads that use the slogan “Come in With a Story and Leave With Another.” Can you recognize the books being referenced below? It’s elementary, my dear Snow White Just in case you need a little help, here are the answers – The top one, my personal favorite (and easiest to decipher), is Snow White with Sherlock Holmes. Anne’s Transformations. Anne Schneeberger is a conceptual photographer living in New Zealand.
As her portfolio reveals, her work must’ve been influenced by great works of M.C. Escher and Robert Gonsalves. The obvious difference between Anne and Rob’s works is that Anne uses real life photography (enhanced by the power of Photoshop), while Rob traditionally painted his paintings. I really like what Anne sent us, specially the one showing great mountains transform themselves into a ship. Tom French’s Skull Obsession. Why is it that romance and death go so well together in art?
Perhaps it’s the idea that true love is eternal, which means that even in death the lovers will stay together. Or, maybe it’s because death will eventually conquer any romance, no matter how powerful. Maybe it’s that true love will lead us to do anything for our partner – even dying for them, just like Romeo and Juliet did. Or, perhaps it’s the simple contrast of something so dark with something so beautiful.
Whatever the reason, artist Tom French is a master of mixing the macabre with the saccharine, depicting romance after romance all blended in seamlessly with skull illusions. While not all of his illusions focus on romance and a few aren’t even skulls, but are, instead, faces, they all manage to stir up emotions from the viewer.
