Optical Illusion Art: An optical illusion is a mind-bending illustration of an object or drawing or picture that has different appearances if looked at from different perspectives. There are many types of optical illusions like physical, physiological, and cognitive illusions. These optical illusions are also a part of the field of psychoanalysis as they throw some light on your personality traits. A normal human brain can look at things or images differently forming a different perception from each angle.  One such clever illustration can be seen in an old painting of Octavio Ocampo’s Don Quixote.

Visions of Quixote illustrate Octavio Ocampo’s powerful ability to tell the story of Don Quixote by using a single picture. From afar, you can see an old man with a faraway and dreamlike expression on his face. The artist has used wild yellow hair and a strange beard to complete the man’s strange demeanor. At a close look, you will be transported to the Spanish countryside, where you will notice that the windmills in the center of the picture look like they are about to come to life.

Faces you see first in this optical illusion tell a lot about your personality

Two proud heroes occupy the center of the picture sitting on their horses (Don Quixote on his faithful steed Rocinante and Sancho Panzo on Dappie) and are backed by windmills. They are surrounded by the world that lives in Don Quixote’s mind. In the middle of the right picture, Don Quixote is immortalized protesting that a deceased man still lives and getting ready to hijack his body to save him from an untimely funeral. If you focus on the area around this scene, you will see the face of a dog or a symbol of Quixote’s madness.
