I was at the Bold Street Festival in Liverpool today and they had this street art competition.
Some of the drawings on the floor were amazing, my favourite one was the Salvador Dali, there was so much detail that was put into it.

I saw one of these that was basically a chasm that looked completely real from a certain perspective. My mind was blown.

I know who you're talking about. That guy did a bunch of ultra-realistic and kick-ass drawings using perspective to make it pop out of the sidewalks. I even used to have a folder filled with his stuff, but I sadly lost it a while ago and [del]can't remember his name[/del] his name is Julian Beever.

How the fuck do you even do that perspective stuff? I can't even comprehend it.
I like to look at them from the angles you aren't suppoesd to view them at. It's very neat. Like one of those paintings where it'll form a 3d shape at the right angle, but if not it's just lines everywhere.

It only works if you view it from a specific point. Usually the artist has to keep walking back and forth between the drawing and the viewing point to make sure they're doing everything correctly.
