Did it Change?

This painting was intended as an optical illusion. It's suppose to make the viewer try to identify the marks as paint stokes or wood grain. This is a trick because the entire panel is painted. This entire year has felt like a bad trick starting with a lock down, to GradEx 105 being postponed, and canceling convocation. Even the months and felt like it was going by slow and fast at the same time. I often questioned if something changed or if something is changing.
