Art Musings

An image has a very special way of being able to be interpreted. I believe that it all revolves around the idea of perception. Taking a different approach may open many ideas and viewpoints that one individual may not be able to derive from their own brain. I enjoy art that makes a statement, and allows the individual to question the motive behind a particular piece of art. I do not believe that art is only confined to vivid images on canvases, but it can also be found in music, writing, fashion, and poetry. I generally love any form of expression, visual or interpretive.The purpose of a visual image may be to express something that may not be able to be described with words. Individuals may add their own twist and interpret the image with miscellaneous items. Finding inspiration is everywhere and may be located in a local art museum, street art located in the neighborhoods, or images that are shared on social media by aspiring young artists. I have always been a fan of optical illusions since I was a young child. Several of these images have baffled my mind and have allowed me to  think of the big picture.
  
This optical illusion has two main images that both showcase a story. When I first looked at it I noticed two men sitting down and playing the guitar. I looked to the right and saw that it was a passageway to a different room and that a woman seemed to be entering the room. As I inspected to picture in more depth, I realized that the image turned out to be an old man and woman who were facing each other! This image has intricate details of the two men sitting down, which allow the old man and woman to be shown. There are many websites that showcase optical illusions. If you enjoy art, and like looking at the intricate details that show the bigger picture, I recommend looking at  Optical Illusions.
