Fish Eye Squares

A twist on an old classic. This week's freebie features a traditional pattern - moire-like dots that get larger nearer to the center. A centuries old trick to fool the eye into seeing patterns of light and dark based on how close together and how large the dots are. This flavor however, uses squares rather than dots. Enjoy!

Descending V's

Today's freebie looks very simplistic, so I thought I'd give an example of a blog design to show how this one can shine. Sometimes simple is better. I think you have a lot more options and freedom of choice with a simple design. So without further ado...

Concentric Circles


A cool optical illusion inspired freebie is here this week. Concentric circles! I like this one so much I mocked up a totally cool new theme for my website, but haven't committed to switching over to it yet. Bees, my favorite! The pink is awfully feminine, but fitting for the month of February I guess. Take a peek and let me know what you think!

Alternating Lines Zigzag


So this week's freebie is a little later than I would have liked, but here it is, one of my more favorites, though I do like them all. This one also was inspired by a Dover book. I might wish for more creativity to come up with these all on my own, but everybody needs a starting point, and those Dover people make some of the best stuff ever.

Alternating Lines


Today's freebie is a simple optical illusion design I created from inspiration in a Dover book. It's quite simple, and was easy to create in Illustrator, my creation tool of choice. Check back next week, I will be posting more designs later on.
