This is a video from Instagram user road_art1 of a set of 3D stairs he drew on a bike trail (then washes away at the end). Obviously, they’re not REAL stairs, they just look convincing enough. Like all the windows my landlord painted in my apartment. I regret touring the

This is a video of caricature artist Saemee Yoon of Waikiki, Hawaii’s Caricature Party sketching a couple and really hitting their insecurities like a wrecking ball. She makes the woman almost entirely teeth, and the man just a giant nose and Adam’s apple. They have a good laugh about it
