Chalk art
I received these pictures in an email and thought I would share. For being chalk art I think they are really amazing and creative.
The artist is Edgar Mueller.
Great Crevase Edgar Mueller. Hard work: Together with up to five assistants,
Mueller painted all day long from sunrise to sunset.
He spent five days, working 12 hours a day, to create the 250 square metre
image of the crevasse, which, viewed from the correct angle, appears to be 3D.
He then persuaded passers-by to complete the illusion by pretending the
gaping hole was real.
'I wanted to play with positives and negatives to encourage people to think twice
about everything they see,' he said. 'It was a very scary scene, but when people
saw it they had great fun playing on it and pretending to fall into the earth.
'I like to think that later, when they returned home, they might reflect more on
what a frightening scenario it was and say, "Wow, that was actually pretty scary."
This one is my favorite by far, fantastic creativity!
There are roughly 25 or so pictures total, if requested I can share more, I wanted to share these first and see the reaction.

Re: Chalk art
Once many uears ago I was walking down 5th avenue in Manhattan, NYC and saw a young man creating chalk art on the street. It was beautiful. Then I noticed he was creating with his toes for he had no arms. Truly incredible. Gave him a hefty donation. Never saw him again.

I've seen these of a similar nature locally, but not as good as these. I really like the first one, with ice cliffy thing. That is really amazing work.
