Don Marco..... The Master Crayola Artist
Don Marco was born in Northern Minnesota in the late 1920's.His interest in art was evident even before starting school. As a young adult in the Army Air Corp, he began his life's career in Air Traffic Control, which continued until his retirement from Honolulu International Airport in 1973. Much of his spare time was spent as a professional artist. Before retirement, Don started developing a technique to create fine art, using Crayola Crayons. Shortly after retiring, he published his first print. Living in Southern California , his work was in demand, including commissions from Burt Reynolds and a one-man show at his Dinner Theater in Florida. Hard to imagine these are done with crayons!!!
There are many images so I posted them here to save space.......

Those are amazing. You should have seen mine. The bus was swerving, not my fault they weren't as good.
I wonder, did he use the 50 box set or the 100 box set of crayons? and I bet none of his are broken.......KK!
Very nice artwork,SER. It's hard to believe that they were done with crayons. They look almost look like paintings! Impressive!
I'd love to see them larger. When I did a Google image search, they all came up small. Here's his website: http://www.themastercrayonartist.com/. All small there, too.
