Magic Eye


eye Picture

Do you remember the magic eye pictures?  They were sooo popular back when, the 90's?

In my book, when Gracie tries to tune into the voices in her head, I mention that it's like trying to view one of those magic eye pictures; the first time you try to do it you struggle, but once you know what you're doing, you wonder why you ever had a problem.

Are you any good at magic eyes?  Here's a test for you:-


Can you see it?

Thanks Kelley, it was done by Phatpuppy art. Have a look at her website, she's got some fantastic covers. Yours is a good one too - who did you use?

Btw, I'm following you on twitter, and your blog! Always good to interact with other writers.

Good luck with the book - I'm going to download a sample...

They're great aren't they? I didn't think they'd work on the computer - but they're just as good! Still can't get my head round how it works though...

I managed to see it once, but when I tried again it wouldn't work! Can't get back in the zone, lol.

Doh! Maybe my hubbie is right, it's just a random pattern and those of us who think we see it are deluded...;o)

Hi, Tess. I never thought of them as relaxing before, but you're right :o) You have to let yourself drift in order to see the 3D image. Magic Eye therapy!!
