On a Lighter Note.. Trippy 3D Pavement Art

With all the bad stuff happening at the moment I thought I'd post something cool on ATS. Hopefully this thread can make someone smile or make a trip head trip out









The situations going on in the world ruining peoples homes and livelihoods are horrible and my heart goes out to anyone involved or effected. I saw these pictures and they made me smile so I thought I'd share them here and hopefully make someone else smile!

Cool man

Cool stuff! Much more found here:

haha i love the creativity of these things..

i wouldnt mind having that awesome skill set myself

I'm almost bouncing up and down at this, it's sad how much I want to be able to use something I've learned in any form of everyday life....
Those sidewalk paintings are Trompe l’oeil, we studied it in my aesthetics class and I loved seeing the examples of it.
Supposedly, Zeuxis, an ancient Greek painter, painted grapes so realistic that birds flew down to peck at them in his paintings. There is also a guy Liu Bolin who "hides" in photos because he paints himself and blends into the environment. www.odditycentral.com...[/ url]

At the same time I think the reverse can be pretty interesting too like with Alexa Meade [url=http://www.alexameade.com/portfolio.html ]http://www.alexameade.com/portfolio.html

I love these pavement arts!! They look so real.

I especially love the fountain one
