Creating our Canvases

On Saturday night, David and I used some crayons, canvases and my hairdryer to create the art that we had in mind to use for our digipak.

We taped crayons onto the top of the canvas, then used the hairdryer to melt the crayons, which created a splatter effect. This look was quite difficult to achieve, as the colours from the crayons would mix together to create a kind of murky colour, and sometimes the wax would dry before we had finished adapting its shape, so it occasionally looked a little odd.

It took us a few attempts until we were happy with our piece, and then it took a while to clean all the wax off my kitchen floor.
