Students Transform Plain Sidewalks Into Works Of Art - Using Just Chalk

Students Transform Plain Sidewalks Into Works Of Art - Using Just Chalk

Students were assigned one square of the pavement each to showcase their skills.

New Delhi: Every year, the Savannah College of Art and Design in the US organises a Sidewalk Arts Festival. The objective is to create colourful chalk masterpieces on pavements. This year too, using just chalk, students of the college set about to transform boring old sidewalks into works of art - and they have outdone themselves. If their Instagram posts are anything to go by, the SCAD chalk festival was a resounding success. Take a look at some of the most vibrant, most beautiful illustrations:

Can you believe Van Gogh's self-portrait was recreated using just chalk?
