3D drawings by chalk artist Chris Carlson are unbelievable
Chris Carlson is the most famous street artist you've never heard of. Though his chalk drawings are on a flat surface, they’re so well done that you won't believe these are actually 3D.

- The Eric Clapton drawing takes the cake. His art work is mind-blowing so it's fitting that Carlson's channel on YouTube is called AWE Me. Consider us awed, sir.
- This drawing is inspired by Dutch artist M. C. Escher. The anamorphic chalk mural has also been captured in a fascinating time-lapse video.
- These works of art are so exacting in their geometric precision that they actually appear to pop (or plummet) from the surface.
- Carlson mostly uses his skillful mastery of perspective to create trippy murals.
- The theme that largely connects all his chalky masterpieces is 90's gaming nostalgia. You will not only spot Iron man, Hungry Hippos, but you will also see Nintendo. Unfortunately you actually play that.
- Carlson also has a playlist of time-lapse videos on YouTube showing just how he goes from empty canvas to chalky masterpiece.
- Carlson may well be the chalk master. He creates images with amazing, three dimensional characters that may make you question your view of reality.
- These chalk art masterpieces appear to pop off the ground itself. Carlson’s work takes the passerby into another dimension entirely.
