September 5th, 2007 — Art, Julian Beever, Swimming Pool
The above swimming pool has tile mosaics on the bottom and sides of the pool to create a 3D effect. The artwork reminds me of the chalk art of Julian Beever.
Imagine swimming in this pool. I would love to have something like this in a pool of my own. Of course, I would have to have a pool before I could put that kind of thing in it. Also, I expect it would be pretty expensive.

June 8th, 2007 — 3d images, Julian Beever, Pavement art, Pictures, Sidewalk art, chalk
I discovered this amazing artist, Julian Beever, who does 3d sidewalk paintings in chalk. His pictures look so real that you almost believe they are real. The coolest thing is that since the images are meant to appear in 3d, they are actually painted in a distorted way. So when looking at them from the side or the back they are completely distorted a strange looking, but when looking at them from the front they come out in full 3d. The picture above is just one of many on his site. Check it out to see some truly amazing images.
