A green chalk-drawn dragon peeks out from a black hole-like window on a red brick wall. A person’s hand, holding bright green chalk, appears in the foreground, as if adding finishing touches to the playful creature. The dragon’s curious expression and vivid colors create a whimsical, lifelike scene. Art by David Zinn.

A charming sidewalk chalk drawing of a small mouse in a green scarf pulling a red sled. A squirrel sits happily on the sled, surrounded by tiny white specks, resembling a snowy day. Created by David Zinn.

All signs of good sledding weather have to be taken with a grain of salt

A vibrant chalk drawing of a cheerful creature with big eyes sitting on a crack in the pavement. The art cleverly uses the crack as part of the scene, blending it naturally into the character's setting.
