The paintings, which have fooled many, were created by John Pugh, who specializes in trompe l'oeil - or 'trick of the eye' - art.
He uses his skills to delude the viewer into seeing 3D scenes painted on flat surfaces.
The Californian-born artist said: 'It seems almost universal that people take delight in being visually tricked.'
