Crayon drawings help us travel back to our childhood memories. Most of our drawing journey started with crayon drawings. Nevertheless, crayons are not just for kids, they can be used as a wonderful art medium.
Some simple techniques can be used to create beautiful arts and are listed below:
- Use a paper that will grip the color evenly: Try Stonehenge or illustration board.
- Have a good hand-held sharpener handy: Try to keep a point on the crayon.
- Professionally apply the crayon: Use it as a fine art medium and use the control, not just as kids.
- Build your colors gradually, and layer them: Start drawing with light colors. Give dark colors on top of the drawings.
- Some colors are more transparent than others: Test your colors in a separate piece of paper to make sure they work properly.
- Too many layers of crayon can make the colors resist each other: Use a few colors to get better results.
- Scratch out small lines and details with a craft knife: It can give detailing to your drawing.
