• 4．Walk around the city of Ann Arbor，Michigan，and you may see a green animal named Sluggo and a flying pig named Philomena.You might even see street artist David Zinn drawing them using only sidewalk chalk and charcoal （炭筆）．
     At the age of 12，David began working as an artist.His dad was writing a computer instruction and worried that it would be boring to read.So he asked David to draw pictures of turtles （the name of the computer program） to explain it.The publisher liked his drawings，and soon David had the job of drawing more turtles in action."I learned a great lesson，which was that，to make money as an artist，I couldn't always draw what I wanted，" he says."I had to figure out how to draw a turtle drinking tea and other things like that."
     David worked for 20 years as a commercial （商業(yè)的） artist，but he often felt cooped up （禁錮） sitting at a computer for 10 hours a day.Then，on a sunny afternoon about ten years ago，he brought some chalk and started drawing on the sidewalk.That's when Sluggo came to life.
     "One of the reasons I like to put art on the street is to take people by surprise，" he says."I can have fun drawing，and knowing it will be washed away helps me not think too much.It frees me up."
     It takes David about two hours to complete one drawing.He uses a lot of sidewalk characteristics in his street art.It can be difficult to draw on surfaces that are not flat.He has to notice where shadows will land so they won't destroy the 3 D drawings he creates.
     Today，more and more people are accepting and looking for his work.David's artwork can also be found across the country and even throughout the world.Photos of his drawings have been shown at many universities and museums.
