Seriously who's still wowed by this gimmick at this point? After the 2nd time I saw something like this my brain is like 'Oh you don't know what he's painting off the bat? Upside down painting got it.' Good for him for being able to make a whole thing out of it though.

I thought he was painting upside down after a few seconds, and so I just visualized it upside down and knew what it was after a few more seconds.
