By Mary Whitman Many parents might be surprised to know that wax crayons and colqred drawings date back ‘many centuries B.C. In fact, the’modern type man ■with the strange name, Homo sapiens, made drawings on the ■walls of caves and rock shelters at the beginning of our culture. He. would dig up colored clay from the ground which he formed into ■ rqughly shaped •‘crayons’’ and draw richly colored, very* lifelike bisons and mammoths. You’ve probably seen pictures of these drawings in history books* John Rbcknowskl, who works on development of new crayons for Whitman Publishing Company, Racine, Wisconsin points out that crayons have a fascinating history. The Greeks began to paint with wax similar to the way we use oil paints today. They would add dyes to hot wax and apply the melted substance to vases, wooden panels ‘or the walls of their homes as a form of mural. Many famous artists liked and etill like to use the. medium ot crayon drawing. A young man named Nicolas Conte developed a slightly greasy fabricated crayon in 1790 and this was the first crayon to be marketed with a trade name. In the late 1800’s ToulouseLautrec used wax crayons and colored pencils. Henry Moore, the contemporary artist and sculptor, has been a prime user in his drawings of wax crayons. His technique is to draw lines or areas in. wax crayon and to superimpose water color or ink. The paint will not cover the waxy area which shows through and the artist can make more of a contrast by scratching the wax crayon areas. - This might be a fun way to experiment with a different type of drawing. All a child will need is a coloring book, box of crayons and some water color paints to let • his imagination go to work.-
