1. Beautiful!
Those are incredible! I'm emailing it to a few people.

I'd call it genius on the part of the artist.

10. Okay, that one with the laptop had me fooled for a minute
I wondered why a picture of someone's laptop was in with all the beautiful sidewalk drawings.

13. There was a guy that did something very similar in Boston years ago
but he did reproductions of the art that was housed in the local museums or historic scenes on the Freedom Trail.

These are just spectacular!!! Thanks for sharing.
