Julian Beever is an English, Belgium-based chalk-artist who has been creating chalk drawings on pavement surfaces since the mid-1990s. His works are created using a projection called anamorphosis and create the illusion of three dimensions when viewed from the correct angle.[1]

Here are some of his best work...
