I made it ,4 days of crouching on my knees and rubbing chalk down with my fingers. I met a really great bunch of Chalk Artists and the organizers were fantastic. I started with a quick sketch and built my composition and design as a whole, creating a story from my poetic beginning, I layered textures gained from a spurt of rain to random foot prints and wind blown chalk, my art was more trad and should be viewed as a normal artwork on a wall. Most of the guys worked from detailed drawing or photos/paintings some were more adventurous, I was in free fall, hanging on the edge of failure, what a buzz!!

I felt the name of this type of chalk art very misleading, assuming each person was going to CREATE an ORIGINAL piece of ART from the starting gun, my mistake, it looks like they should change the name of this type of art to Odd Angle Perspective Rendering. Recreating is NOT creating, no problems, I will definately be doing chalk art again, but this time I will RENDER and RECREATE an ODD ANGLE PERSECTIVE OPTICAL ILLUSION chalk art, which I feel would not have hardly taxed my skills to the degree I put myself through.

I will recovering from this intense time, and will post the picture and any links here.

The theme was Climate Change.
