This Artist Proves That a Little Chalk Can Bring a Lot of Magic to the Block

For me, one of the coolest things to come out of the pandemic was people being forced to find new (distanced) ways to connect with friends, family, neighbors, and even strangers who cross our paths on a daily basis.

Companies found new and innovative ways to find customers, education systems had to revamp to reach out to every willing student, and even artists unearthed brilliant ways to continue to connect and inspire the public.

In Ann Arbor, Michigan, David Zinn does street art with chalk – on brick, concrete, or whatever else will take – and the images stick with people, long after they’re washed away by the rain.

Below are 16 images that will make it easy to see why once you’ve seen some of his work, you aren’t likely to forget it!

16. Francine is going places, y’all.

Don’t you love to see it?

13. Oh my goodness.

I wonder if he sees his shadow or just a bunch of smiling faces.

Emerging from the tunnel, striking a match.

That’s just the rules of the universe!

Street Artist’s 3D Chalk Illustrations Are Really Great

I’ve seen a lot of chalk art on the street and on sidewalks lately when I’ve been taking walks, but I’ve never in my life seen anything quite like the chalk art of a man named David Zinn.

He creates really cool, 3-D chalk art of little creatures and animals and he uses the street as his canvas.

He describes his work this way: “Street artist specializing in small-scale, improvised and (mostly) light-hearted chalk art.”

Let’s take a look at his art.

Be sure to check out Zinn’s book on Amazon, as well!

1. The Sandbag Bandit.

Even though he’s a bandit, you have to admit that he’s pretty cute.

2. Happy birthday to you!

The owl even has a cake for you.

3. He loves me…

He loves me not…

4. Look what I found.

You never know what you’ll discover.

5. This must be the place!

Use your time wisely!

6. Looks like a good spot.

To kick back and relax.

7. Lost in a foreign land.

And trying to navigate your way through it.

8. I love this one.

One cookie per day.

9. Two good friends.

Just taking it all in.

10. Love is love.

And you can see it on display in this drawing.

11. The tools of the trade.

When pigs fly…

12. You have a new buddy.

Enjoy it!

Zinn’s work is really great, don’t you think?

Now we want to hear from you!

In the comments, please tell us some other cool artists we should be following on social media.

Thanks in advance. We can’t wait to hear from you!
