Funny thing, one's brain. I definitely had to "force" mine to see the upturned M as a W, as it came back with NEM all the time.

That m/w was the starter of the whole thing. my son was playing with his blocks and the M/W as well as the A and Y were close by, i read it immediately as WAY, but then realized it was the M.
Unfortunately i couldn't get all the letters to be in the painted sections, so i opted for using the E and A in the middle of the last two words as a second way of looking at things.
The color and tilt are also on purpose, tilt is to make some people physically tilt their head to see something, color is because we're used to seeing wooden blocks being...well, wooden, and not having tones and highlights throughout the surface pop out this way.

I knew it'd be in the bottom three when i was processing, but I didn't enter for score, i really wanted people to think on this image, so i'm glad to hear that at least one person had to force their brain to adapt to see what i was doing :)
