Octavio Ocampo is an artist we often cover here, on Mighty Optical Illusions headquarters. All his art creations have an optical illusion touch that is hard to replicate. If you remember his flower creations which often picture a beautiful lady, or his nature environments that hold an interesting story, you’ll probably recognize his presence in today’s illusion as well. Although there is no one else painted here than two soldiers and their horses, you’ll probably have no problem identifying famous Don Quixote. Only recently have I learned that Octaivo is the author behind one of the most famous illusions on this site – Old and Young Couple. I might have missed more of them, but mistakes stand to be corrected. Btw, if you heard of Kate Perry and her Hot & Cold sing-a-long, you’ll love the additional video I provided inside this article. We have to have a break from illusions now and then, don’t you think?

i love this guys work
i found 15 faces including the horses and the dog
yea, i love MOI!!!
and also that you tube clip was pretty rockin for like folk music…8.0/10.0 haha right on
i see faces all over the place, there are a few skulls I noticed, people walking. I’m sure theres other objects also
Besides the face of Don Quichot, there are at least six other hidden faces and one hidden skull. Great illusion, this one.
I see 16 faces(two are on the shield).
Hi, the first thing I must said is not are two soldiers with his horses!!!! nooo please!!! This is a painting about Don Quijote y Sancho Panza taking a rest with quijote horse “Rocinante” and the mule from Sancho. Maybe the big face is the writer of this novel called Don Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra. Or maybe the Don Quijote face. ni two soldiers, if Octavio read the presentation he will cut his veins.
On the other hand is a super-incredible paint about the faces I found over 20 and maybe are more.
Of course Im spanish and I think this is the best widget. Thank yuo for surprise me every day.
There is a bit of brokeback mountain in this picture, no?
the youtube link is there y? but anyways i found like 19 faces/skulls/horses face but really cool illusion/painting is the aurora borealis on top a mustache/face or just an aurora borealis?
Los Colorados are fantastic!!!WE LOVE THEM!!!!h
Found 18 faces apart from the big one (which i think is Cervante’s) plus 3 skulls, but probably there’s more. Love this image, like the others from this artist. he is really great, does he have a website where I can find more of his works?
Really nice also the video! The song’s nicer than the original :P !!!!
LOL! at the youtube thing! so funny…
the illusion is cool tooo!
I’m spanish too, and yes, that’s the Cervante’s face the big face. so, please, Vurdlak, correct the mistakes at the resentation. it’s really a picture from Don Quixote and Sancho, but they’re the soldiers that you found, and the big face isn’t Quixote’s one but Cervante’s. Nothing more but it’s very good illusion and that I only can se 17 faces (the faces of the people are too dark, so if I include theyr one, there are 20)
I found 20
that picture is amazing;
in the video are they speaking serbian?! cuz i think they are!
I take mor time for watch slowly the paint and I found 33 faces and …maybe are more. This picture is called “la amistad de Don Quijote” “Quixote friendship” and you can see a first paint with the same idea and less faces: http://www.octavioocampo.com.mx/amistad_quijote_acua.htm
And if you like this kind of pictures and you cant wait for see it in MOI go to: http://www.octavioocampo.com.mx and enjoy this artist.
i can see 20 faces
i found 29 if you count the dog, two horses, woman with buckets, two soldiers.
oh missed the 2 in the shield… so 31 i guess.
Haha
wow this one is really cool
I see 39 faces in this picture
At least 20 faces
Octavio Ocampo is from Celaya, Guanajuato, Mexico.
I have an original author signed lithography of “Friendship of Quixote” ( the real title of this oil).
It is amazing
It is true about the big face: It is Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra.

I can only find 14..
I Found 16! Sorry :-)
This is extraordinary! I have loved optical illusions since I was tiny, and recognised this one as the style of many I’ve collected. Up til now, though, I did not know whose they were. Gracias, Vurdlak, y Guillermo y DrChispo, por la información sobre señor. ¡Ocampo! Can’t believe he is so young – always thought these were very old paintings. I love hidden meanings in words and pictures and his are the finest and most layered I’ve ever seen. Oculophilia, indeed!! I wish my Spanish were as good as your English.
Also, Don Quijote has been a hero of mine since my grandfather began telling me the story when I was four. He had beautiful sculptures and paintings from the story throughout his home, and I have carried my own lance into battles with windmills.
I love the illusion
What is up with the mad people singing Hot and Cold
thats a bit weird
Love the site though
I found 19 faces (including the dog and horses faces and the whole head’s face) If you don’t include those it’s 15.
Wow super awesome, illusion!!!!
I Think I Found 29 But I Definitly Found 27!
Your Illusions Rock
Love it!
awesome illusion
at first i only saw like 16 but after i kept looking there is way more
i saw around 23 or so
For your information, everybodys, most of you are spelling Don Quixote wrong (Don kihote) its D-O-N Q-U-I-X-O-T-E. The book is called Don Quixote de la Mancha (Mr. Quixote of the [village] mancha), i have the book but i never have the patience to get past the first page, its got like 937 pages and the words are in tiny print. I just cant. I read the 700+ page novels brinsigr and breaking dawn but those werent in tiny print. i found 18 faces.
i did a recount i found 25 sorry
another recount 27 awesome
27 f-a-c-e-s!
