OUR IMAGE HOST IS DOING SOME MAINTENANCE WHICH RESULTED IN BROKEN IMAGES ACROSS THIS SITE. PLEASE BE PATIENT, AS WE ARE WORKING WITH THEM TO BRING THE IMAGES BACK UP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
Every now and then we post amazing set of 3D sidewalk paintings done usually by chalk artist Julian Beever. These things never get old, and always manage to fascinate. I collected dozen of photos never before seen on this site, and integrated them in this article. All look amazing to me, but I liked the "World" one the best. Is it your favorite too? If I missed any of his creations, be sure to notify me, but before you do this, check if I already posted them to the "3D Sidewalk Art" category. Another thing I noticed, is that this particular artist always poses next to his creations (when finished) in a very original way! Stay fresh my friends, and if you liked this article please share it on the net!
these drawings are absolutely phenomenal. this guy has amazing talent!! can someone tell me where they are? i noticed one of them was of a subway station in manhattan, the union square one. i live in new york city and would love to see them in real life--is that where they are? once again you have provided fantastic illusions!!

my fave was the fifth... it really looks like the girl is in mid-air. its amazing how you have to draw them really streched out and take the piicture at a certain angle.
YAY FIRST!!!

these irritate me for some reason but they are really cool! where can i find a picture of one these where the picture has been taken so that it doesn't look "real"
I've seen sidewalk paintings in Bellingham and Port Townsend, these however, take the cake. I love illusions of space--crawling out of a hole for instance. As an artist myself, I wonder how it is to spend so much time and then have the elements take it away. Perhaps it's like the monks making those intricate sand--or is is colored rice--paintings. Bravo!

I really love all the paintings, Julian is a genius. I'd like Julian visit Latin America.
Takes a certain type of mind to be able to visualise something so accurate, whilst having to draw a completely different image on the floor!

These chalk drawings are very nice, but they only last as long as weather and pedestrian permit. and he creates these illusions by looking through the scope of his camera after every line he makes to create the optical illusion.
