At first glance, this looks like a typical sculpture, doesn’t it?

What should Zico do brain teaser

dagger_puzzle

What will You Choose to do

Zico, the leader of a rebel Kingdom, was taken captive by an opposing kingdom.

“Give your daggers,” said one of the generals, “Or you are to be executed. But since you killed so many of our knights, we shall give you a small test.

You must say a statement. If the statement is true, we burn you on a stake. If the sentence is false, we stab you through the heart. If you do not say anything, you are thrown to the lions. If you say something we can’t verify, you will be forced to drink a cup of poison. If it is not a statement or if it is a paradox, we simply toss you into the nearby volcano.

We shall give you one hour to ponder.”

What should Zico say?

Sidewalk Cat and Mouse Chalk Art

cat and mouse chalk art

Small Scale Street Chalk Art

We’ve all seen the monstrous sidewalk chalk art illusions, right? Sure, they’re incredibly impressive and take tons of talent to pull off, but sometimes small scale sidewalk chalk art packs just as much of a punch!

Check out this awesome small scale chalk art design by artist David Zinn to see what I mean…

cat and mouse chalk art

This piece of sidewalk art was created on a concrete step. The cat above is getting ready to pounce on the little man coming out the door below. It’s so well drawn and shaded that it almost appears real!

I love this pie of chalk art! Although it’s small, I think it packs just as much of a punch as some of the massive pieces created by other sidewalk artists! This isn’t the extent of his work either. You can check out more small scale chalk art designs on his website.
