Anamorphosis is a form of perspective. It obeys all the laws of perspective; usually more strictly than any other form. It is, however, an extreme form of perspective in that an anamorphic picture is usually distorted in some way. You will be learning about how artists Pozzo and Holbein used this type of perspective in different ways.
   Three-dimensional Street Chalk Painting is a 2-dimensional artwork drawn on the street itself that gives you a 3-dimensional optical illusion from a certain perspective. It can be very breathtaking, realistic and at the same time captivating once you get the angle correct. And creating one is certainly challenging as you are creating a realistic 3D view out of a 2D painting. You will learn how street chalk artists create their paintings and why.
