Passing by British street artist Pref's work, you might just see a carefully rendered array of colors and shapes. Maybe you'll even be able to pick out the shapes of letters. But upon closer inspection, the genius of these pieces reveals itself when you realize that each painting contains an entire phrase all stacked up and layered into one clever composition.

Take a look at Pref's art below and see if you can decipher the messages.

Against The Grain ("THE" is painted in like a shadow. Look for the horizontal bar of the T against the tops of the A and G in "against.")

This one is also only three words, but each word is a bit longer, so they're woven together more intricately.
