    I paid the local "Chalk Master" some cash, so he drew me this huge liquid-chalk ad on the pavement on the busiest intersection in Toronto.

    here is the time-lapse of the whole process... its quite cool!

    It doesnt get washed off with the rain. It should be there for a few weeks.

    Dundas and Young.

    What a great idea! Are you planning on doing it on any other sidewalks or media?

    My kids got given some and I let them "go for it" on a window. Hours of scrubbing later... water alone doesn't get it off...

    cool idea!
