Amazing 3D Sidewalk Art Photos

These unbelievable photos are chalk drawings done by Julian Beever and Kurt Wenner. Both Julian and Kurt have different styles to create an amazing 3D illusion.

Scroll down slowly and stop at each new frame. Julian Beever is an English artist who’s famous for his art on the pavement of England, France, Germany, USA, Australia and Belgium.

Most of his artwork it is impossible to tell whats real from what’s an illusion. Very cool stuff.

  This art kicks ass. All of those pieces are some of the craziest pictures i’ve ever seen! Absolutely crazy! It’s so crazy that someone can map that out on paper and then put it on the sidewalk with some chalk. Crazy! Absolutely Crazy! I mean what was this guy smoking?

  ART WORK IS THE BEST EXPRESSION OF SELF . I FEEL DUDE HAS NOT EVEN LET HIS TRU CAPABILITIES SHINE AND TO LET HIS WORK BE WEATHERED AWAY IS STUPIDITY IN THE MAKING HE SHOULD HAVE A DEAL WITH BIG HEADZ/S THE STICK ON WALL PRO SPORTS POSTERS OR ETC… ENDLESS POSSIBLE WEALTHY ENDING FOR THE GUY. I SEE WAY MORE CHANNELS WERE THE WORK WOULD LAST LONGER THAN HIS PROSPEROUS,CREATIVE LIFE. ITS SO CRAZY WHY NOT HAVE MORE THAN A WEB PAGE OR PHOTOS. LET PEOPLE SEE THIS 200 YEARS FROM NOW. JUS LITTLE THOUGHTS FORM MY HEAD LOVE THE WORK.

  What a fantastic romp through the mind, and into the humor, insight and political commentary of a truly revolutionary artist. Trompe l’oeil at it’s most engaging. Thank you Mr. Beever. WoW!

  Julian’s work is not bad … it is all very clever. But for my money Kurt Wenner’s work is transcendently beautiful. He has a lot of amazing work on his website http://www.kurtwenner.com. Turns out he is an architect and sculptor as well.

  INTENSE! And that isn’t a strong enough word to describe this art form. Even more unbelievable when you look at it from the “wrong” angle and think of how he had to compose each piece “out of whack”, so to speak, to get them to look “right”. I have got to try this. What a challenge.

  This guy never ceases to amaze me. And the best thing is he’s getting paid for it, from the big businesses, like Sony (he was paid to draw that laptop in front of the building), so it’s not the best pay, but still awesome.

  This work is EXTROADINARY!!! I do public art and this is fabulous. I understand that its temporary but how about we work together and get a client to make a real one in coloured concrete, mosaic whatever.???? Come to Australia please and we can get a some project that will be incredible. I agree with some post here that they want this to last!!!!
  I have all the contacts. Call me. I do understand it wont be as ‘painterly’ as your drawings.. mor graphic like an ‘Echer’ type, as an architect you will know what I mean. Look forward to hearing from you.

  Truly amazing, God could only make this, you are extremely talented and should be known all over the world. You could make millions of dollars doing advertisement, and doing commercials for the TV. You should be in history. I find that you have a real eye at art, and I think you know what I mean. You don’t have to be good at art, you just has to have the eye to do it. Those people must be the luckiest people on Earth to experience you up close. Your art work should be know, and your name should be remembered. You must tell me where I can find you, or where I can find some of your amazing art work. Though you might not want it on television, you must be remembered any way. You should have a art tour where you travel all over the world. You have what they call “TRUE SIGHT”

  This is true work of art. Pure talent at its best. This dude is gifted, and it would interesting to work he is doing art professionally, or only on the streets. It would be a great deal of waste if the latter is true, since the world needs such talented ppl on a professional level. Keep up the wonderful work dude!
