According to artist [Herb Williams](http://www.herbwilliamsart.com/), he is the only person in the world who has an account with Crayola; indeed, his series of Crayola crayon sculptures show an unparalleled brand loyalty.

Williams selects art subjects that to adults are iconic objects, then reintroduces them by using [crayons, a childlike medium](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artist-color-crayon). In the gallery, there is a bull head with horns, a skull, a Labrador Retriever, and a flower.

Below, read how Herb Williams describes the process of creating his Crayola crayon sculptures.
