Hat tip to friend and artist Mary Wade for introducing me to the mesmerizing doodles of Visothkakvei. Wow. Wow!

Thanks, Mary. And thanks, Visothkakvei for pushing the limits of doodling. Here’s a quick introduction from the link Mary sent me:

Artist Visothkakvei creates detailed drawings that go way beyond your average doodles. Armed with a pen and an endless imagination, he fills sketchbook pages with sprawling compositions that are full of tiny, fine-lined elements. Throughout each of his works, motifs of delicate blooms, fancy flourishes, and crystallized forms fit together like puzzle pieces as they ebb and flow effortlessly around the page.

Some of Visothkakvei’s most striking works are his optical illusion drawings. Here, the minuscule patterning is strategically shaded to build depth and volume. They lead us down a rabbit hole—literally—and ignite our sense of awe. (Source: mymodernmet.com)

Many of Visothkakvei’s doodles appear to move. Optical illusion? Yes. But not always.

Wild animation. Here’s another intriguing doodle. It appears to be 3-D, but it’s an optical illusion.

Ever wonder what’s it on the other side?
