Crayons in Fine Art

I don't remember how I first came upon this artist's work, but it's simply amazing. Christian Faur makes images using crayons. Wait, let me rephrase that, Christian Faur makes gorgeous images by placing crayons next to each other. His use of color is brilliant. You can check his stuff out on his website here.



Another artist that has incorporated crayons into his work is Cy Twombly. He mostly produced these paintings during the late 1960s and apart from crayons used pencils and household paint to draw/paint on large tan canvases.
