3D Street painting Art By Kurt Wenner

Master artist and former NASA worker Kurt Wenner uses his

mathematical skill to create illusions on cobbles and pavements across the world.

The 3D artist, who was once commissioned to draw for the Pope, will soon

be heading to London to unveil his latest creation.

They may look like a computer-generated images but these incredible scenes are

in fact hand drawn using chalk.

Due to the emergence of computer generated images, Kurt was one of

the very last artists to be trained how to mechanically replicate perspectives

using just basic stationery and mind-bending equations.

This piece in Philadelphia for Buick motor company was divided into

two ‘planes’, so that the participants could picture themselves in the car.

This effect was achieved by creating a ‘cut out’ of part of the drawing, and

having the participants lie on their backs.
