When you think of art what comes to mind? The more classical definitions out there will reference the masters, Botticelli, Rembrandt, all the big names from museums and gallery openings. The more open minded might say that art can be and is everywhere all around us all the time. That second definition is gaining more and more ground as time moves on and people begin to understand that art can be done everywhere and anywhere and that art at its best is when it is accessible to all peoples. Art should be the language and the right of everyone not just the privileged few or those who can afford an expensive trip to see the world's greatest treasures. And when it comes to art of and for the people what could be a more fitting canvas that the street? Yes even the humble roads and sidewalks that we traverse everyday can become the setting for some truly mind blowing artwork thanks to 3d street painting.
3d street painting is just what it sounds like. It is when a talented artist creates an image on a regular road or sidewalk that is done in such a way as to make the image appear three dimensional. The most popular medium for 3d street painting is sidewalk chalk, another fun link to ordinary lives. 3d street painting happens all over the world, usually in larger cities and some of the bigger 3d street painting pieces can cover a truly impressive area. So if you are someone who has a real appreciation for art and does not think that it should be trapped behind museum glass and security guards try to catch a peek of some 3d street painting. If you cannot get to an area where this happens in person the internet has some fantastic examples to satisfy you.
