As an artist, I take umbrage with this!! Crayons are so much fun to work with! They blend in a really different way because they’re wax-based and you can melt them to make drippy, wet textures!!

What we know as crayons actually got their start around the late 1400s. These were more similar to compressed charcoals and chalk pastels, though. Artists like DaVinci and Michaelangelo used them primarily in the sketching stage of paintings, and for DaVinci in his journals. In the 1800s the charcoal pigment was replaced with colors and the crayons started being able to be mass produced thanks to the Industrial Revolution, and that’s when they first started making their way into classrooms. But they were still primarily marketed towards artists. It’s really only in recent years that they’ve been excluded from the artist’s toolbox, for whatever reason.

They’re very good for us because they’re relatively cheap (if you’re an artist, you know how important this is to us XD) and they’re good for filling in large areas with color or texture. And for those of us who work on unusual canvases (leather, plastics, drywall) they’re very helpful because their wax and oil binders let them stick to weird surfaces pretty well. You’d probably actually appreciate them if you used ‘em, Tech! They don’t conduct electricity, so it’s be safe to write with on wires and they’re waterproof, so you can use them in wet environments like underwater or in a storm!

Do you like crayons?

Do your parents know that you're on the holonet, little one?

A place for me to share my art as I learn how to draw digitally! (Apparently it’s important to share your age on this website now. I’m uncomfortable about posting my exact age online, but I am mid-twenties to early thirties. Don’t come at me, my joints ache)
