Chalk as an Art Form

Whether artistic hand lettering on a menu or transient large-form chalk art on sidewalks – skilful chalk drawing and painting continues to fascinate, astonishing beholders who marvel at the creativity on display on small as well as larger surfaces.

Tracy Lee Stum

The American artist Tracy Lee Stum is primarily known for her 3D chalk drawings, which transform dreary sidewalks and streets into impressive works of art. Even though the street artist’s creations have a limited impact radius, and even though her works of art are usually rather short-lived, we can still delight in the masterful optical illusions of this internationally renowned chalk artist thanks to the marvels of modern digitalisation.

Since its founding in 2012, Lily & Val produces handpainted blackboard art, greeting cards, and a variety of stationery. Each piece radiates the unique aesthetics and creative spirit of founder Valerie McKeehan, which she uses to craft her hand drawings and images. It all began when the newlywed Valerie transformed an old picture frame into a handpainted chalky blackboard.
