see the
link that was in my first post (http://nadav.harel.org.il/Bridget_Riley/).

She painted optical illusions and stripes and stuff. Much of it is just stripes, a bit like Damien Hirst's dot paintings, but some of it is cool. Her style became known as op-art

Well Cool
Like that very much. This is exactly the sort of nerdy thing I like doing.

All I've managed in Word are a couple of crappy Mondrians, but they're easy peasy.

These look well classy. I was going to have a go at Riley's INTAKE, but I'm still floored.

Well done, mate.
