The best illusions do not just appear out of thin air. The clever wizard will create them out of sight or around the corner when possible so that that their approach will seem natural.

They just appear suddenly, but there's also a slight subtle sound effect due to the air movement.

I'm going from the 'behind a curtain' one, because I feel they appear with some sort of undefinable shift and the feeling that they had been there all along.
