American illustrator David Zinn plays with chalk and trompe l’oeil techniques to create quirky ephemeral artworks in and around Ann Arbor, Michigan.
“David’s temporary street drawings are composed entirely of chalk, charcoal and found objects, and are always improvised on location through a process known as ‘pareidolic anamorphosis’ or ‘anamorphic pareidolia’.”
His work has been published in several books, including The Chalk Art Handbook, a guide that teaches anyone how to use his signature techniques to produce fun artworks on driveways, sidewalks and in playgrounds.
