For a while now, the graffiti done by artist Jimmy Cochran manages to stand out from the wall as you walk past it in the street. However, with his latest technique, his street art now literally stands out.

His painting ’Girl With Spheres 3D,’ located on the walls of the Bird & Ballard coffee shop in London, incorporates similar visuals that continue throughout his work. The pointillist technique and the floating spheres are themes that can be found in several of his paintings, however this one isn't just about looking 3D. When you wear 3D glasses that are given out at the cafe, the graffiti actually pops out just like a 3D movie would.

This [3D painting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3d-billboards) by artist Jimmy Cochran brings a new dimension to [graffiti and street art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/enigmatic-graffiti).
