Someone just sent me a file of Julian Beever's anamorphic pavement art.
Astonishing.
Have a look at

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

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

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