We all spent some time playing around with sidewalk chalk when we were younger. Who didn’t? There were few activities as fun as filling up an entire piece of sidewalk with brightly-colored chalk. Some artists, though, have taken this childhood pastime to an entirely unsurpassed level.

3D sidewalk chalk art is amazing, and one day I hope to see it in person. Unlike the hopscotch courts that I created with chalk during my childhood, these works of art are so realistic that they appear to be coming out of the ground! Needless to say, these are not your average Crayola sidewalk chalk masterpieces. I’ve found some awesome examples of sidewalk chalk art that you won’t believe until you see them.

What do you think, Lovelies? Have any of you ever seen 3D sidewalk chalk in person?
