David Zinn has a special way of making sidewalks and streets feel like magical places. With just chalk, charcoal, and a big imagination, he creates fun characters that seem to come to life.
You might find them hiding in cracks, climbing up curbs, or peeking out of manhole covers. His art is temporary, but it always brings smiles to people passing by. From Sluggo, the friendly green monster, to Philomena, the flying pig, his characters fit perfectly into the world around them. Keep scrolling to see some of his newest chalk creations that brighten up the streets!

SO hard to choose but the sweetest, for me, is Nadine listening to the Grapevine.
Fantastic! Brightens up your day. Even my highly intelligent granddaughter would enjoy the illustrations. And this talented charming man’s sense of humour.
Thank you so much. May positive blessings be upon you.
It’s so fun to find someone who sees more humor in life than most adults.
Keep reminding us that we have imaginations and humor is free!
You are just amazing! I’m a writer I would love to work with you to create something amazing… a mind blowing story… that every child in the world will adore forever. I’m also a background artist. I do spray paint on canvas. You blew my mind!
Nadine is always my favorite!
This is the kind of street art I can get behind. It’s charming thought provoking and imaginative. It’s not slanderous, harmful, or inciting any toxic feelings tied to a difference in opinions or beliefs. Just very whimsical. We need more art like this in the world to inspire others instead of tearing them down.
So heartwarming and endearing, literally brightens your day, beautiful work. Absolutely amazing ❤
All are my favorite! Amazing talent! Brings so much fun n joy!
