For over a decade, David Zinn has been creating impromptu, temporary street art across the Ann Arbor area. With nothing more than some chalk and charcoal, Zinn is able to transform ordinary objects - sidewalk cracks, street curbs, light fixtures - into whimsical, visually deceptive pieces of art.
Recently, Zinn completed a permanent muralon S. Fifth Ave., near Liberty St, which features Gene Kelly from his iconic scene in "Singin' in the Rain."
Zinn's work has gained international recognition through his Facebook page, UK Huffington Post, and various other media outlets.
Provided is a sample of our favorite pieces.
