Pavement Picasso

Out of sheer serendipity whilst researching Banksy on the web, I came across English chalk artist Julian Beever, whose pavement artwork creates the illusion of three dimensions when viewed from the correct angle. His trompe- l’oeil drawings, which he has been doing since the mid-1990s, are created using a projection called anamorphosis and appear to defy the laws of perspective.

    What an interesting concept!

    It looks very cartoonish in style!
