Don't fall in: Spartan Reader

      site with a some more chalk drawings 


     We've all drawn with chalk sometime in our life. So we know how hard it is to draw a smooth line against the rough sidewalk's gradient, let alone a mural that looks anywhere near good. Now jump from a nicely drawn portrait to a chalked image so realisticly and proportionately drawn that your eyes can hardly discern the flat road from a gaping hole, or the mouth of Michael Angelo's Sistine chapel just chillin in the middle of the street.
    The imaginative use of line and color and value create an illusion that takes a creative mind and an intelligent brain to piece together.   Each mind-boggling exhibit paints an airy and chimerical emotion through bright colors and proportions used to suck it down, disappearing deep into the ground. The textured brick patterns and serrated rock detail pull the viewer into a state of awe and amazement. All the chalkings seem to be amidst big cities or old, town neighborhoods. The artists play on their surroundings by dressing the road with red hot daggers penetrating the sky,dangling as the base of a street full of antique houses; making the neighborhood look a lot less cozy and comforting, but amazingly and dangerously unique. I wonder, did the artists consider how their devouring images would whisper degrading tauntings? Even while one feels severed from reality while gazing on probably the hardest piece of artwork to create ever, one can’t help feeling inferior to whoever has such a wonderfully crazy talent, while he has such miniscule ones.
