Julian Beever is an English artist who’s famous for his art on the pavement of England, France, Germany, USA, Australia and Belgium. Beever gives to his drawings an amazing 3D illusion. These Trompe-l’oeil drawings are created using a projection called anamorphism and appear to defy the laws of perspective.
Here are some of the optical illusions I received on email, thought I share with you guys:
(Rescuing someone on the streets.)
(Girl lying on the beach mat.)
(Rembrandts with Rembrandts.)
Portable Computer was drawn on The Strand, London and was commissioned by Procom.
(Sun on the streets.)
(The pool with a girl.)
(The pool from another angle.)
(Playing with a boat in water.)
(What a waste of water!)
