บท 130: Artist's Duel (Part Three)

The first person to break the silence did so with an elongated, "Wow!"

This opened up the floodgates, as others joined in appreciating the two paintings displayed before them. The first thing every artist and critique in the crowd noticed was that both the paintings had achieved the third level. This was incredible because the artists did so just within an hour and only used black ink. One must remember that a third level painting qualifies as such because when it is observed, the viewer perceives the painting in actual three dimensions. That is, they would feel as though it would be possible to touch the objects within the painting if they reached forward.
