Once the paste has dried, he paints the two sides differently, using oil paints.<br \/>The result is an extremely detailed three-dimensional painting, so much so that it almost looks like a photograph. The protagonist appears to be a single person at first glance, but it isn\u2019t: looking at the painting from right to left, the subject changes.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_video _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.7&#8243;
