Description This is something I've been wanting to do for a while, and it took about 40 shots to get it right. I was using Crayola pencils, which bore the golden logo that kept shining on other pencils. In this picture, you can faintly see this in a couple of pencils towards the top - I attempted to edit it out in Photoshop, but couldn't get rid of it completely. But since this was the best of the bunch, I thought I'd share it with y'all...hope you enjoy it

i guess thats what we get for letting close-minded people look at art. i do admit, using the white pencil was just asking for it in my opinion, XD sry.
---ANYWAY

but yeah, its the simple things in life that we don't pay attention to, and when we do, we see how much it impacts our lives. i have to say,personally, a pencil thats out of place like that would drive me nuts. awesome picture.

Yes....very simple...but I like it a lot.
The simplicity is the best thing about it I think...it's quite calming in a strange sort of way.

I'm glad it's not promoting racism, but what IS the concept?

thetopcrusader In reply to csd0916 [2007-01-03 15:50:07 +0000 UTC]

The white pencil would be the one to stick out, since it's not a color, yet it is the result of a combination of all the other colors.
