Image essay #4
Julian Beever’s sidewalk art is incredible. Mainly that it is all done on a 2D surface that you can walk around. Only at one angle can you see the image as 3D though. His shading is very precise, and so are the measurements of every angle and every line, so that it is exactly in proportion to what he is drawing. This particular piece that he did as an advertisement for Aveeno. The circles going out of where the droplets hit the water are so precise. Every tile is at just the right angle. And all the plants look like they are blowing in the wind.
