I really like the idea. Hard to execute unfortunately. The shadows are harsh and its hard to actually see the colors (the purple and the green are quite dark). The other colors also look a bit oversaturated.

One thing that might have worked (whether it would be an improvement or not may be debatable) is to actually color the page rather than having melted wax.

In the end, this was a really great idea that was pretty tough to pull off.

The processing turns me off a tad with this shot although you probably have exactly what you wanted here. Just not my preference. However the image is neat looking, good work.

A very creative look at crayons - the image meets the subject matter dead on with subtle, yet detailed effect. A terrific demonstration of the creative process in meeting the challenge in a very unusual way. Should be a sure bet to win a ribbon or place high as a top twenty image. A couple of minor detail problems not worth mentioning because they don't appear until you really get a critical eye and examine the image closely. Well done.
