3-29-06 Culture

Let's do something different. Let's turn our attention to things more beautiful and awe-inspiring.
Ladies and Gents, I present to you Mr. Julian Beever and his amazing Chalk Drawings.
He's tremendously talented, but his hands are very colorfully dirty. (all that chalk dust)






Many more fascinating drawings if you click on his name above.
Have a great Wednesday. Go dig for gold. :D

Yeah...this guy is amazing. I've seen a lot of paintings done by him. Graduated art student in Rome are duing something similar each year around the graduation, but without the 3D look to it. They go out and paint on the sidewalks, and the day after when the streets and sidewalks have been washed, the paintings are gone.

Hope you're day will be a good one :D

We have a street fair here in Dallas where this is done each year. Well, what you said but not what this guy does. I guess that's the thing about art. Unique is taking something ordinary to the next level. :)

Gotta run. Have a splendid day.

Amazing stuff. I just stare and stare and stare. I know it's possible cause I'm looking at it but I still just stare in wonder.

Such a talented artist! I sometimes have trouble perceiving 3-D stuff, but his art is always fabulous.

Hee hee...I'm so glad to have brought a bit of joy and awe. Even if I didn't create it, it's nice to spread it about.

Treé, I'm with you...I just stare and stare and shake my head with gleeful wonder. His work makes me feel like a child. In a good way.

Terry, He really has a way of bringing it out. He knows just how to show off his own talent so the world can enjoy him.

Autumn, I second that WOW! :D
