We’ve seen hundreds of ultra-realistic chalk drawings by now. Over the years artists have truly mastered their craft, pushing the boundaries and making their results more realistic by each iteration.

After sharing her find, I did some research and figured out that the artist behind this “constructive vandalism” goes under the name of ZebraThing.

The lead artist behind this work is Tracy Lee Stum, who happens to hold a Guinness World [...]
