The New York artist Colin Chillag intentionally perfects parts of his oil paintings, and leaves other sections unfinished, as if he had just left the easel to get a cup of coffee in the kitchen. The final image contains extracts of all sub-steps, from the initial pencil sketch thru applications of different shades of color to the finished portrait. He lets the viewer in a special way participate in the creation of his art, allowing a window to view and understand the genesis of his works and granting insight into the dimensions of artistic creativity and the endless patience, passion and precision that goes into each of his oil paintings.

Create something similar by folding colored paper or magazine pages into long thin strips, rolling those up into coils and gluing them onto a backing.
Draw the outline of a hand, very lightly in pencil, and then began drawing lines freehand across the paper. When part of the hand is in the way of the straight line, have each artist "crawl over" their finger or hand with curves and arcs. The optical illusion becomes very obvious if the lines were close together and the curves fairly strong.
