Illusions in Chalk

Meet Julian Beever. He creates 3d illusions in chalk, on pavement. Each drawing exploits forced perspective to give the illusion of depth. As such, they only look "right" from one specific vantage point (where the camera is usually perched); from other angles, the work looks distorted.

It's hard to describe. Your best bet is to head to Julian Beever's website and spend some valuable time clicking on thumbnails.

And that is a blog entry for today!
