44 Amazing Julian Beever’s 3D Pavement Drawings
Ready to kill boredom again?
This time we present a wonderful collection of amazing 3d sidewalk chalk art by Julian Beever (+- all of his works).
But first of all, who is Julian Beever?
According to Wikipedia:
“Julian Beever is an English, Belgium-based chalk artist who has been creating trompe-l’œil chalk drawings on pavement surfaces since the mid-1990s. His works are created using a projection called anamorphosis, and create the illusion of three dimensions when viewed from the correct angle.”
Remember panda’s recent post called 20 Incredible Eye Macros? Eyes are second most complex organs besides brains, but this time our eyes fail. Nevertheless ,it’s a wonderful failure, since it lets us enjoy this fascinating 3d pavement art.
