They are but a few of the amazing works of art, done entirely in CRAYON, by Don Marcos, aka Mr. Crayola, who apparrently developed a children's amusement into an art form over the years.

I've seen his stuff before. Pretty impressive. I, also, remember seeing a video in which he explains how he "prepares" his Crayolas so he gets nice smooth application. I guess it makes since to those with artistic talent. Me, I couldn't even stay inside the lines. :oops:

Amazing stuff. I think the saddle was the one in Time Life's Cowboys.

I do believe he sharpened his talent well beyond the ability to sharpen a crayon.

I have always been amazed at the tallents of others but the most by those that can draw or paint. I can build you a whole house, weld two pieces of metal together with a single hammer blow, build a harley from scratch :wink: , but can't even draw a simple flower. That indian picture shines.
