CHALK ON SIDEWALK

Somewhere in the ByWard Market in downtown Ottawa, I happened on a very talented young artist painting this beautiful face in chalk on the cement.

I thought it was the most gorgeous piece of sidewalk chalk art I have ever seen.


Art doesn’t get more ephemeral than this!


Here’s the artist, François Pelletier

Ephemeral yet amazingly beautiful
I agree! It gives me chills to think of this beauty’s ephemeral reality. I really love it!
Thank you for stopping by and commenting!
A lovely talent. Glad you were able to capture the artist at work. Great! 😉
It is very neat that I captured the artist at work! Thanks for noting that. 🙂 Hope you are having a wonderful day! _Resa

Beyond beautiful… after it rains…_Resa ♥♥♥
Sad-eyed lady of the looooowlands…
Looooowlands…. “lol” Hugs to you, you nutty dude!
Very well done
She’s so beautiful! The artist is outstanding!
Agreed!
Stunning! Can you return and shoot it as it fades or after a rain? Maybe that’s too difficult, but I would love to see it. 🙂
I would have gone back daily, but I’m in Ottawa working and the schedule would not allow it.
I would love to see it fade away as well. 😉 😎
