Wondering 3D Art On The Pavement...Truly Amazing !!

Master street artist Kurt Wenner's creations on cobbles and pavements across the world may look like they have been dug into the ground...

amazing trick of the eyes...

Using a style known as anamorphic street painting, the artist is able to create convincing illusions

Over 25 years ago the pioneering artist was influenced by centuries-old frescoed ceilings...

..Kurt has been able to create a staggering collection of work...

..and has appeared on pavements in over 30 countries

Merging the ideas of awe-inspiring murals like Michelangelo's works at the Sistine Chapel with16th century madonnari, the Italian name for street artists...

Former Nasa employee Kurt, armed with just pastels and paint, can transform the ground into living art

Worst Paintings Of Barack Obama ..Lol

A new site, badpaintingsofbarackobama.com, collects terrible portraits of the American president. Here are some of our favourites....

The president portrayed as though he were in a Boyz II Men video ..

While his boyband are on a US tour, Barry poses in his white suit outside the White House.

Barack Obama puts his mansion where his mouth is...

This has to be our favourite. A Mexican tribute to the President of the US, with a taco on his head and, um, a pair of undies in his hand..

The third eye traditionally symbolises enlightenment. Here, it just scares us ..

The artist responsible for this one created a very good likeness of the president... and then decided to 'improve' on it by making him glow and painting the Earth on his forehead. And we don't know what those veins are about...

This isn't Barack Obama - it's Bill Cosby, surely?

Someone sat on the Shepard Fairey portrait. See more at badpaintingsofbarackobama.com
