It’s SPRING!!! That didn’t prevent it from snowing here Friday though, Friday… which was April Fool’s Day. Mother Nature is a practical joker. Although I didn’t appreciate the cold wet slush, I admit that given the power of climate control, I’d have done the same. Still, earlier in the week it was nice enough for sidewalk doodling so that’s what we did.

Not exactly a cartoon, but scary nonetheless.
What are you doing for Halloween?

This week, WABU and I tried out these new (to us) Crayola Sidewalk Crayons. I’ve seen them around for a while and wanted to give ‘em a try because the colors looked so much more intense than the regular sidewalk chalk, but I’ve held off til now because the price for the amount you get seemed steep. They retail at more than three times the cost of the same brand of chalk. So when I found them marked waythehelldown on superendoftheseason sale, I of course, snagged a box to test them out.
Verdict: I’m glad I didn’t pay full price.
Compared to the chalk, the crayons are harder and feel almost a little waxy. That’s not a bad thing. It’s kinda cool actually. The disappointment was that the color saturation wasn’t quite as intense as I’d expected. Most of the crayon colors are more pigmented than their chalk counterparts. The acid green in particular is very nice. But some of the colors didn’t seem that much, if at all, brighter than the chalk. The medium blue, dark blue and medium pinkish purple colors are nearly the same in either crayon or chalk form. Meh. Oh well. I may still pick up a few more packages from the bargain bin. A buck twenty-five seems fair.
Over and out,

Today’s temporal gallery consists of a trio of sidewalk drawings snuck in between downpours. None of these lasted longer than a day. Such conditions precipitate an itchy trigger finger–Ol’ Quickdraw Gerolimatos–that’s what they call me round these parts. And so, from the growing archive:

Lately, I’ve been a little lax about posting our weekly sidewalk drawings here. Sorry. Today, I’ve got three from the last few days to show you: one seriously ambitious drawing by WABU, one with an unexpectedly sweet message by Mr Brown–ages 15 and 13 respectively–and one by me. Everyone who has happened past has been impressed.

I should probably try to get a shot of the whole sidewalk to give a sense of scale. This first drawing by WABU fills an entire sidewalk section crack to crack and grass to grass!
