Art is something which has no boundaries. Sidewalk art gives an artist opportunity to exhibit his work. Optical illusion is used in perspective in sidewalk art to give the drawing a three dimensional view when viewed at the right angle.

Here are some spectacular examples of 3D sidewalk drawings.

Horror On Road:

In this drawing the cars are lying directly on the road. It is unbelievable that there is no water or molten lava on the road instead, it is just a colored chalks drawing. This drawing is looking horrible.
