 Will probably drop like a stone since there is only one crayon (challenge description does say "crayons") in the image...sucker for punishment I guess. But it was fun and the whole family got involved. We all chipped in with the kiddie art image and I had various Helping Hands in the set up. Yep - using the sheet of glass again: had to scrub off the permanent marker pen with acetone


and set the children to painting this Easter morn

Bath Crayons - the kind that you wet and soggy up and draw all over the bath and walls with :-)

would have liked to see the other half of the face better of the boy. Looks a bit weird cut off like that.

ok, this was a good idea...but...it appears that most of the work on the glass was done with paints and not crayons

This is an interesting shot. I love the fact that the boy seems desaturated along with the background but the colors are really "colorful". A tad brighter maybe?

A very creative look at crayons- the image meets the subject matter and by looking at the simple nature of a child at play. A terrific demonstration of the creative process in meeting the challenge. 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.

Very cool shot. There's some bright spots on the child's face in the shadows that are distracting, other than that I really dig the lighting.

Nice shot, the rightside of the face is a little bright IMO.
