Now, in his book, Pavement chalk artist: The three-dimensional drawings of Julian Beever, the artist shares some of his most fascinating and humorous pieces, Here are a few examples you’ll find in the book.

　　●Philadelphia eagle

　　In Pennsylvania, Beever created “Philadelphia

　　eagle ”a huge drawing with an eagle landing

　　successfully on an American national flag.

　　●Meeting Mr. Frog

　　“Meeting Mr. Frog” was created in Salamanca, Spain, and is about a realistic-looking frog sitting on a Lily pad.

　　●Swimming pool in the high street

　　My personal favorite is “Swimming pool in

　　the high street” from Brussels, which is about

　　a woman relaxing in a swimming pool-----a swimming

　　pool sunk into the middle of the street, that is!

　　Along with an introduction about his background, Beever includes a description of the techniques he used and the challenges he overcame with every drawing. He shares information about his time at home in the UK. and abroad; there is a fun story to back up each piece of art.

　　Beever’s artwork is truly jaw drooping. You’re sure to spend ages turning the leaves back and forth, surprised at how one man can create what looks like a three-dimensional design on a flat surface with just a bit of chalk. From animals to superheroes to famous buildings, the paintings are a wonder to lay eyes on.
