This piece was created for the awareness of wildfires in the National Ranching Heritage Center in Lubbock, Texas. With the heat in the area the crayons have since melted and created a new shape and form. The base is what seems to be a skeleton/skin form with the paper of the crayon bonding the two forms.

I really enjoy the repetition on this piece of the stripes and how they continue on throughout the deer and into the pond. I really couldn't a good look as to how this was constructed but I'm guessing that the surface is the ends of the crayons.
