Colossal Chartreuse Chihuahua

About the Item

Nashville, Tennessee-based artist Herb Williams received his BFA in sculpture from Birmingham-Southern College. Although the artist works in an array of media, his whimsical works, which combine thousands of Crayola crayons, have garnered the most attention. Using colorful crayons, and meticulously gluing them in place, one by one, Williams produces original sculptures that continue to delight. Taking direction from Picasso and Warhol, Williams has embarked on stealing from the best by recreating some of the world’s greatest classic paintings in his trademark crayon style. In many ways, the results are as compelling as the originals themselves.

  • The Gathering of Graces, Quarter Life
    By Richard MacDonald
    Located in Laguna Beach, CA
    Greek mythology records the Three Graces, considered the fairest daughters of Zeus and Eurynome, as representatives of the blessings of nature. Followers believed that each spring, their fertility dance caused seeds to sprout and flowers to bloom. On another creative level, the young goddesses were believed to influence artistic achievement. While Boticelli’s expression of the soft, linear forms inherent in the Three Graces influenced the rebirth of classical mythology, Richard MacDonald is inspired to foster the renaissance of figurative art with his own interpretation of “grace.” Employing the classical tradition of undulating lines, precise contour and soft, fair forms, MacDonald created first his masterpiece “The Three Graces” followed by an exploration into the personae of each of the three sisters, Agalia, Euphrosyne and Thalia. In "The Gathering of the Graces...
