Optical illusions can be so much fun! They occur when our eyes perceive an image differently from how it really is. Sometimes, optical illusions hide something that would otherwise be in plain sight. These clever images trick our brains because our eyes send the wrong information, which in turn makes us think we are (or are not) seeing something. When an artist is clever enough, they can create some really cool and mind-boggling illusions that often leave us scratching our heads and wondering how. Take, for example, this next one, which is hiding something!
