chalk drawings

you know those street chalk-drawings that are always so cool? well, check this out. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2061268/Artist-draws-Chinas-terracotta-army-chalk-street-art-LEGO-men.html i mean, you can see it happening.

the thing you probably cannot see quite as well is the proportions they use. for example, the first picture is the whole. the second one is the history. the third one is the drawing before the coloring.

now, look closely. the corner closest to you is the corner farthest away in the completed drawing. it's the flip (top-to-bottom) of picture four. the little guy on the horse in number four, is the pink elongated sketch in picture three.

the perspective is amazing and probably only good from a very narrow viewpoint.
