Child’s Play

Child’s Play

If you’re like me and you sometimes have a little bit of trouble getting out of your head and into play mode, I’ve got an idea for you.  When you are trying to play like a kid, use a kid’s toys.
These multi-colored twistable crayons featured heavily in the last two series of mixed media paintings.  They pair really well with acrylics, giving you color as well as acting as a bit of a resist from the crayon way.  They come in solids, neons, and metallics,  but I especially like the way these multi-color options give you a little surprise that never turns out the same way twice.
