Reality or Appearance? CREATIVITY IS KEY

It would not be an exaggeration to say that the distinction between appearance and reality is, and has always been, one of the principal focal points of philosophy. Although the question relates to intricate relationships among theories of knowledge, ontology , and truth, the chief question raised by the distinction is epistemological: How can people know the nature of reality when all that people have immediate access to are appearances?
Broadly speaking, responses to the question fall into one of three classes: Those that argue that observers are unavoidably "cut off" from reality, those that argue that there is some way of "getting at" reality through the appearances, and those that reject the distinction.
To my point, whether reality or appearances, I think there abounds CREATIVITY in both. No doubt, I believe reality is far different from appearance because some things are teally not as they appear to be.
For these pictures below, whether its just the way it appears (appearance) or the way it is (reality), the similarity is in the delight and marvel it gives when looked at. CREATIVITY is the key to this post, not an attempt to know or investigate if it's real or just the way it appears.
