DESCRIPTION: Create astonishing artwork with crayons!Crayons aren't just for kids anymore!Sculptors use them whole, bundling thousands of crayons to create environmental and installationsize sculptures. Carvers pierce and reshape crayons with scalpels, turning them into mini totems, helixes, and portrait busts. Textile designers take advantage of the medium's 120 shades of wax to create brilliant batik fabrics. Landscape and stilllife artists layer crayon shades in works on paper that rival paintings in their subtlety and depth. What will you do?!The Art of Crayon will guide you through a gallery of works by contemporary artists who use crayons as a diverse and dynamic medium. Each chapter includes a specific style of crayon artwork, complete with engaging projects from author Lorraine Bell to help you learn different techniques. From sculpture, to carving, to melted wax and drawing, you'll soon become a master crayon artist!
