Optical illusion coloring pages are very interesting not only to look at but to work on. If the illusion page can be colored without getting dizzy, that is half the task finished. There are many that are really unique and there are many kinds to choose from. With the proper markers and plenty of time, an optical illusion page can be a delightful addition to a wall or art collection.One
. interesting design available is composed of concentric circles growing smaller and smaller. The background is made of adjoining diamonds of two different colors. This looks like a spiral and gives a 3-D dimension that looks like it is going on forever inside.The diamonds and circles lead the eye towards the center of the drawing where there is a lighter circle acting as a vanishing point. This is called one-point perspective and is achieved with the diamonds pointing towards the inside light-colored circle.Lines that are wavy and shaded on the ends in a lighter shade appear to be moving. This can lead to creation of many optical illusions when placed in a spiral shape. Another trick is to make images in black and white. If stared at for a length of time, when the eyes move to a white wall, the black and white image will appear on the blank wall. With animated drawings, if an object is shown rotating to the right, it can appear that the object is actually moving to the right when it has not even crossed the center of the page.The link that is attached has a great page with scary illusions, circles, triangles, faces, animals and many other things that can be imagined. Just coloring an optical illusion can be an inspiration to create original artwork. They are beautiful if they are enlarged, painted or framed for hanging inside the family room or other places in the home.
