"THE CRAYON ARTIST" is the only individual
in the world with an account with Crayola.
Herb Williams says:
"I get these colors individually packed 3000 to a case.
I cut down the sticks to the length I need by hand
with either double guillotine cigar cutters or
large breed dog nail clippers. I then bond the paper,
not the wax, to a form I have carved or cast,
completely enveloping the form.
"Lately I have been casting the completed
crayon sculptures in a silicone jacket
mold with a two-part epoxy resin and then
painting the resin sculpture to look like
the original, for a small edition.
The sculptures beg to be touched,
so when they are cast it makes the
handling of them that much easier".
