Laura’s dad sent these images to me via email. There was no reference to the artist, but since it looked like a perfect opportunity to play with my new image handling software for this site, I felt compelled to upload them here. Fortunately, a quick Google search on “sidewalk artist 3d” revealed the artist as Julian Beever, an Englishman living in Belgium.

I wonder if cities require a permit to draw on the sidewalks. And if so, what kind of permit is it? Seems like this would be a fantastic advertising idea in the right setting. A while back, the BendFilm Festival used a similar idea by stenciling their logo all over the sidewalks of downtown Bend. I don’t know how well that went over with the city, or whether they asked for permission, but I do remember several of the logos persisting on the sidewalks for quite some time. Effective idea.
