Show 'Em Your True (Crayola) Colors in an Art Project

by Frenchie Girl

 

 

Hi, I'm going to try the melted Crayola crayon art project. I've been looking at crayon projects for a while and I really wanted to try one. So I went to Michaels the other day and I got the art supplies: a canvas board and Crayola crayons. I got the project set up with the Crayolas on the canvas. I tried to put the crayons kind of in order, and I took out the ugly colors, LOL. This is just going to be a trial run, so hopefully it works...But I have a huge pack of Crayola crayons to try this art project later if I can make it work. So hopefully the project works out, let's try it. I really hope it works, LOL...

 

Alright, so I'm finished (see above). The art is not too bad...Some suggestions for the project next time:

 

- Use lots of crayon colors - a lot more colors - because this art kind of looks blobby. There's some pretty dark colors and not enough light colors.

- Make sure the Crayola crayons are pretty close together, because spaces really do make the colors not too fun to mix.

- Place crayons across the (entire) top of the canvas board. I kind of tried to flare the crayon colors out towards the edge of the board to try and make the art project look better. But I think it would've been better if the Crayolas spread all the way across the board.

- Maybe do a black background. I think that would be pretty cool...

 

Thanks!
