Creating Portraits with Crayola Crayons does not allow for any mistakes and to a large degree must be exact in capturing the essence of a person. There is a lot of sentiment and nostalgia that goes into a Children’s Portrait. To use their very own art medium to create their likeness adds a sense of emotion and wholesome innocence to make it even more special. Adults think it’s fun for them to have their portrait created with crayons too. For me, it’s a creative challenge that I have enjoyed for forty years in seeing people smile at the finished work. Oh yeah, everyone loves to have their portrait framed with a crayon with their name personalized on the crayon wrapper too!
ACCORDING TO CRAYOLA: "Jeffrey Robert... creates Rembrandt-like pieces using absolutely nothing but Crayola Crayons. Jeffrey Robert inspires adults and children everywhere to recognize and utilize the simplest of mediums, one that we've all used at one time or another and most likely have lying around the house, as a tool to explore and develop their creative and artistic side."
