A Ukrainian Artist Creates Paintings With Unbelievable Optical Illusions

Ukrainian based artist, Oleg Shupliak, specializes in creating fascinating paintings that will trick your mind. The optical illusions that he paints will make you stare at them for hours, seeing things differently than they actually are.

52-year-old Shupliak was a student of architecture, but painting has always been his first love. Nevertheless, as an architecture student, he mastered a technique of positioning images within other images and thus creating mind-bending paintings.

His works of art are made of so many layers – some of them are obvious at the first sight, but others you’ll have to look for quite some time. The artist carefully placed objects in his paintings for you to find, so don’t be confused when you take a look at them – he intentionally did all of that. 

In his remarkable oil paintings, you’ll recognize some familiar and famous faces of John Lennon, Pablo Picasso, Sigmund Freud, Charles Darwin, Paul Gauguin, Zeus, Vincent van Gogh and William Shakespeare.

Take your time to enjoy Shupliak’s artwork and don’t worry – everything is fine with your vision.
