Sideways Trees

Is looking at a painting sideways while it is right side up the same as looking at a painting right side up when it is sideways? This painting attempts to answer that question using some visual trickery and clever design. I was somewhat inspired by that painting of the guy with the apple in front of his face.

Painting things that appear to be sideways is not so hard, you tilt the paper on an angle while doing the art, and when it is finished, you put the painting back to being upright.
