The Disappearing Car


Can you see the car in the photo above? The grill is fairly obvious, but the rest of the car just disappears into the background. You might think this is a bit of computer trickery, but it's not. This effect was achieved with just paint and brush.

This is an art project by second year art student, Sara Watson (the girl in the picture). She is a student at the University of Central Lancashire in England.

Watson said, "I was experimenting with the whole concept of illusion but needed something a bit more physical to make a real impact."A recycling center gave her the old car (a Skoda Fabia) and she set it up in the parking lot outside her studio.

It took her three weeks to do the amazing art work on the car.
