Julian Beever's three-dimensional chalk art and postmodern style

¶ … chalk art of Julian Beever, of England. The writer's main thesis states, "…his style creates a unique and fun aspect and brings a whole new meaning to how I view art." However, this thesis statement does not come until the end of the essay. he/she should be including it in the fist paragraph, as well. Right now, there is no thesis statement in the lead paragraph.

Similarly, the writer does not discuss postmodernism until the end. he/she does not define the word, but details aspects of Beever's work that fall into this art form. I do not gain an overall idea of the concept of postmodernism from what the writer is saying. he/she should either add the concept of postmodernism to the beginning paragraph (for example, "Julian Beever's work is an example of postmodernism"). or, define it in the second paragraph.

I was also confused about "chalk art." Since the process of how it was actually done was not described, I had to imagine what it entailed. I thought of someone drawing with chalk on a sidewalk, which, on further research, I find is not actually how the artwork is done. When a "camera" was mentioned, I thought that perhaps this was a photographic image, but it is not. The art form has to be better defined.

What the writer of this essay did so well, however, is to make me very interested in learning more about chalk art and Beever. I could definitely feel how much the writer enjoyed Beever's work. As soon as I read the article, I googled Beever's name and looked at his work. The writer said a link could not be included, but he/she could have just written the address (http/ / etc.), so it could be copied and pasted into the address box.
