Anamorphic Art

Someone just sent me a file of Julian Beever’s anamorphic pavement art.

Astonishing.

Have a look at http://users.skynet.be/J.Beever/pave.htm but here’s a taster: remember it’s drawn on a flat pavement:

There is no way that is drawn on flat pavement!! :astonished: It looks like a Coke bottle just sitting there, albeit a HUGE Coke bottle! Amazing!

That’s amazing.

There’s one of what looks like a well or something, with a couple of people drowning too. That one was kind of cool…or maybe I’m just sick :stuck_out_tongue:

:laughing:

That’s Tony Blair grinning while John Major (Tory ex prime minister) disappears off down there. I don’t recognise the other geezer though.

unfortunately, we have too many REAL ones like this:

I see coca-cola features heavily in his art, never a Dr. Pepper or a Pepsi to be seen. Wonder if he’s sponsored?

Yep.

Slan,
D. :boggle: :boggle:

His oil paintings are nice, as well. Very impressionistic.

(Hmm… impressionistic… too bad I can’t post this in two threads at the same time…)

Try as I might I cannot make those images go flat.
I found the photos contrasting the “right” with the “wrong” view to be almost equally amazing:

crazy, my brain just will not let me look at these pictures as they really are, 2-dimentional!

Try looking at this one without it moving:

(And no, it’s not an animated gif.)

So pretty! :slight_smile:
