More Crayon Houses (well, one more)

[tripperfunster]

I bought the Prang crayons (thanks for the suggestion, kittehkat!! I've always thought of crayons as very hard to draw with, but THEY ROCK! And dear Lord, they're so freakin' cheap! Two bucks! I also broke down and bought some chalk pastels, but I didn't try them yet.

Thanks again to elicia8 for the rockin' crayon tutorial. You've made a maniac out of me! I'm going to have to do a crayon Snape next!

I really love how this portrait is almost a caracature of him. Totally unintentional, but cool, nonetheless. :D

OHHHHH. SO HOT. AND GORGEOUS. EEEEEEE! I adore the light additions of the rosy tones and man, the shadows! So pretty! His eyes, omg! I really hope this becomes one of your regular mediums! :D Oh, and I hope you like the Prangs and don't want to murder me. XD

No! I quite like them! I couldn't find the Prangs at Staples, so I bought some Crayolas, but then I went to an art supply store (where I could wander happily for hours) and found them in the kids section. I haven't tried the crayolas yet, so I can't compare, but i really like how bright they are, and they're definitely less waxy than the crap-crappity ones I used the day before.

thanks for the suggestion!

And yes, I could very much see this becoming one of my regular meduims.
