I have a lot more respect for your content after you took the retrospective stance of being too clickbaity. Now, you make engaging content which lives up and often exceeds expectations set by the title and thumbnail. There's always a cool ending piece to the videos and, at least for me, the trust has been re-earned for me to always click and watch through your videos.
same here, I really have to respect him for realising his mistakes just as long time viewers (like myself) started to feel alienated from his channel
Yeah jazza is one of the youtubers I click not really needing a thumbnail to entice me with
I love how u can make boring things fun
Oh yeah, sometimes I would be like: is he clickbaiting me? And the answer is always: no. Not at all. He did blowtorch a crayon
Jazza doesn't need clickbaits because he has us, his great community.
"How can i justify using a flamethrower in an artwork?.... i can melt stuff, but what should i melt?.... okay, i'm gonna melt what i hate, so i'm gonna melt crayons" - jazza's line of thought
I want to ask you if you ever made Jesus your lord and your savior have you ever thought about turning to God? God loves you and wants you to come to him and he will give you salvation for free you cannot earn your way to heaven its a gift that you take from God through Jesus. Did you know that God is our Judge and even though He doesn't want anyone to go to hell alot will go there because they will try to earn there way into heaven God is our Judge and Jesus is our savior from the sins we committed. Since God's our Judge everyone will be in front of God on Judgement day some will be with Jesus and go into heaven and others God will send into Hell. This is why alot will go into He'll because they trust in there heart that there a Good person and they think that if they change there bad ways than they won't Go to Hell but since God's a Good Judge he cannot let sin be unpunished. that's like you on earth killing someone and then telling the judge you won't do it again! So don't put me in prison! That won't work. The only thing that will save you is if someone paid your fines and the judge can Justly and rightly let you out because someone paid for your fines. Jesus paid for our sins on the cross and he took the punishment of our sins on himself because He loves us he chose to die for you in hopes that you will turn to him because he knows that nothing will save you from Hell except Him except His work on the Cross. If you want to be saved tell God that you make Jesus your lord and your savior and agree and rest in that Jesus died for you and on the third day God raised Jesus from the dead Agree and rest in Jesus . "9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed."
I used to be a talented painter and an accomplished musician and I made some very poor decisions and spent years on heroin and on the street...today I'm happily sober and married and thriving and I just did my first piece in years! Your channel inspires me and clearly legions of other human beings. What a lovely thing you share with the world. God Bless:)
I'm weening myself currently. I don't regret the journey because I kinda found who I am and appreciate "me" in a much more realistic and honestly more experienced and mature way than I believe would have been possible any other way. That being said: I will be so happy to leave the weight of the angry monkey that is heroin behind me. Furthermore, I DO NOT recommend ANYONE else attempting this as a method of self discovery. It is so easy to lose yourself in the deadly and distractive world, and once lost ... Well, lost is lost. I am very happy for you that you were able to pull yourself from under the dragon's grip! And I truly thank you for being so honest and willing to open up here. Your comment gave me a great amount of needed strength. Thank you so much!
@@elizabethpate9486 I'm truly sorry that you're going through this. I can still be brought to tears when I go to certain memories. I know not everyone believes in prayer but I do and I will praying that you make it out safely, that your latter half is more wonderful than your beginning, and that you find peace and joy for the rest of your days. Elizabeth, you will make it. Never give up and please don't be afraid to seek help/support because it's hard without it. Thanks for your kindness:) Your life is so important. Never ever forget that.
Art stays wtih you, no matter what. It helps to heal you. you can't lose it. use it. Best wishes
Congrats on getting sober
@@reinab8168 thank you, Reina!! 🙏🥰
The sad thing is, the first drawing in this video with the crayons normally, is better than any art I could do with top-of-the-range supplies.
I'm sure you've built skills elsewhere. I'm sure you can get really skilled at drawing with lots of practice!
don't bring yourself down because people are more talented than you it's about you and the cool stuff YOU make other artists should be an inspiration to get better, to see their ideas and techniques they're definitely not there to get discouraged

Textured paper probably wasn’t an optimal choice for the first crayon sketch. Hot-press or mixed media paper would be a better alternative.
literally my first thought. I've seen pretty good crayon drawings. Why you would think that paper would give it the best chance is beyond me.
Yeah it’s like he wasn’t even trying and was trying to prove a point instead 🤷♀️
yeah, I mean Kasey Golden doesn't seem to truggle with em
"Distract yourself from existential dread" that is literally what I'm doing. Thanks Jazza. You videos are some of the best for that
Was literally crying because I just called out because I feel like a soda bottle that was opened a week ago and my manager told me to get a doctor's note for calling out sick... I'm not sick. I'm clinically depressed and tired from working 6 day weeks for a month. Then I turned on wifi and my phone notified me, and I'm already feeling better.
yep
Yuuup
Could have gone without that bonus with my lifetime subscription tbh
Currently watching this to distract myself from my thoughts so I don’t start crying
No one does the heated skillet and paper technique anymore with the crayon. Basically, you have an electric skillet and you place paper down let it be heated and you draw on top with said crayons. The wax melts on contact as you draw. It was the best way to do it.
I remember doing this as a kid!

I was about to write the same thing. I used a hot plate once to draw-melt crayons on it to see how that would come out. It was fun.
Jazza I’m a high schooler, and I used crayons. And they are misunderstood medium, I’m gonna list a few things that’ll make coloring with crayons better. 1) DON’T USE TEXTURED PAPER I noticed that the paper you used was textured, for crayons you need smooth paper with little to no texture 2) YOU CAN BLEND THEM much like color pencils, they take layers and you need to start off lightly so then you can build up the color and blend 3) Follow up to 1) the wax does stick and doesn’t change shape, but again you used textured paper thus making the wax uneven and unable to stick I’m not being a jerk just simply pointing out major errors you did. Overall love you content!
There are many ways to make realistic art with crayons
@@bozoclown2098 for sure, if you do truly know how to blend, mix and use crayons they can make amazing artworks!
Totally agree with these 3 points. Especially about the smooth paper.
@@A-Minor-Music Yep! My art teachers helped me and few other kids who were interested in crayons a few tricks.
Nah this is completely better from what you did lol, this is art which btw doesn’t have any rules.
Jazza's wife: "Honey- It's your turn to cook dinner" Jazza looks at crayon pots and pans. "Pizza night!"
You missed a method you could have used here, which is melting in layers and then peeling layers back with a knife/pointy stick still looks cool but I wanted to see you find those colours underneath in other ways, and you get to add your own textures then rather than relying on melted wax awesomeness (you could have peeled back the sky to reveal mountains carved into them that might have been unusually satisfying given the background would weirdly pop up above the foreground)
Ooooh carving the wax away is a fascinating idea!
I hope he does this in a future video xD
YES I hope Jazza does a round two with this!
Like with those black sheets of paper that you scratch to reveal the colour with?
Great idea.
What about drawing with crayons "normally" on a heat resistant canvas and then melting the picture? Might be cool, if it works
We used crayons to make home made iron on transfers using coloring pages and extremely thickly layered crayons and then ironing them onto white cloth to make quilts for kids. Not sure how well it stands up in the wash tho.

You should seal your work with resin to give it a glossy look and to protect the crayons from cracking and breaking.
wouldn't resin heat the wax while it's curing?
@@fionazelmann7541 depends on how thick of a layer of resin you use. A thin layer shouldn’t generate enough heat to melt the wax.
I was wondering if resin would work out over it, I feel like a regular varnish wouldn't be enough to prevent cracking but wasn't sure if the resin would work out either.
@@robincharles7057 UV resin cures fast enough not to melt the crayons.
@@emilyrosepayne ty that's so cool!
I have a better recommendation! We used to to this at a kids' fun center. You use an electric griddle set pretty low, cover it with foil to protect it, then put your paper on and get artsy. It's so fun the way they glide and get melty as you draw.
Omg TOTALLY seconding this idea. Rather than heating up the medium, heat the canvas. Would LOVE to see how those turn out. It'd be further TOTALLY different from how these two turned out.
@@chibinecco1981 It's pretty easy to do at home for fun too, if you have an electric griddle. The kids' place used to leave gloves out for the kids to wear so they wouldn't burn their hands, but I didn't always wear them.
@@bookworm4174 good to know! I don't think I have an electric griddle? But if I ask around a friend may. I also don't do a lot of art in traditional/physical mediums, but... I'll certainly keep this in mind if/when I throw my next crafts party HIGHLY recommend. You get a bunch of art supplies together, invite friends and all draw/paint around the table. The social aspect does WORLDS towards encouraging casual artists into trying something new, or finishing that project that's been sitting around for ages.
I have done this for years!
That's what I was about to recommend a cookie sheet or canvas on a flat sheet pan on a low heat element to keep the wax slightly melted
Jazza: I hate crayons Me, whose main medium is crayons: 😅 My crayon tips: - Use marker first! (I use alcohol based so I don’t kill my paper, but I’m sure water based works fine too). This allows you a base of color to build on - Blend them! I personally have been using a white crayon to achieve this, but I’ve also heard good things about alcohol based blenders - If you hate the texture (I personally love it), just scrape it off (you can use your nails, a coin, or a scraping tool). You can also combine textures by only scraping parts you want to emphasize - Don’t be afraid to sharpen your crayons (they fit in the big side of a pencil sharpener, or you can by a specially made crayon sharpener - it’s literally just a pencil sharpener but they replace the blade with plastic so it’s not as harsh, and it maintains the flat base and point shape of the crayon)
I work with crayons too, and scrape off when I’m finished, but I’ll note your other techniques, and give them a try. Thanks. 🥰
That’s so cool. I noticed we’re subscribed to almost all the same channels, but I’m curious; why not Food Theory?
Not enough fire. and since Crayons are pigmented wax, melting them down to a liquid state is the only true method of actually using them in an actually nice manner. The only problem is since there are no good tools for mixing crayon colors. you can literally only blend crayons while melting.
I wish they just made full pencil-sized crayons that were more durable so they didn’t break or go full so quick
They just dont fit in my hand well and break easily :/ but good tips!
I’m so glad I’ve stuck with Jazza through all of these years… and I’m really glad he’s still continuing to put out content that shows his love for art, experimentation, and creativity. Like the fact that he’s been doing this art channel for so long and STILL finds new stuff to do is so inspiring to me.
That first piece is still one of the best crayon art pieces I've ever seen
Jazza is one of the real KZheadrs. He doesn’t make lazy reaction videos all the time or use someone else’s content, he actually thinks up creative ideas and does them himself. I really wish more of KZhead was like Jazza in that aspect
I been at YT since 2007 I been making my own gameplay videos so there’s more real YTers out there Sadly I’m not on Jazza’s level of creativity
You could probably grate the crayons into a waxy sand, which could in theory be applied in fine detail to a canvas first painted with some sort of adhesive medium. Once complete, a brief stint in a low oven could bring the image into focus.
My wife, who is very practical, says “crayons are for 2-year-olds not making a mess.” A fair point. But the messy version is pretty awesome. Love it 😊
My father used to use sealing wax and a skewer. Melt the end of the wax, scoop some off with the skewer and press onto the surface. He made lovely textured pictures. I don't know if you could do the same with regular crayons.

I'd love to see how chiseling areas would go. I feel like that has to produce a thick layer of wax, so it could be neat to carve away a few areas to reveal some different colors. Almost like those scratch away arts
I would totally watch a video of jazza trying this. Makes me think of candle carving but like on a flat surface instead
That's a cool idea
That's a way good idea! I'd love to see this
I love how these two art pieces really illustrate both Jazza’s chaotic and anarchical artistic energy and also his focused and refined capabilities. It’s like each piece represents his two extremes. Love it.
Don't forget that it also perfectly illustrated the human condition.
Jazza does it all wrong!!! You fix an electric iron upside down, such as in a vice on a workbench. It just needs to be held firmly, so it won't move and is upside down. Geddit? Then, when it's heated up, warm your paper and draw away. So you don't need a hotplate, though you can only draw on as much area as the electric iron, and just move your paper round as you draw. Have fun!!! (I bet someone gets this wrong and puts their crayon directly on the iron and makes a mess. Derrrr...)
This artist can master anything he touches, massive respect.

Pre-melt some colours in small pans (as you did in the first big test) and pallet it onto the canvas with heated pallet knives. Heated knives should keep the wax mobile on the canvas and allow you to blend colour. You can then proceed with oil painting techniques. Definitely a "Bob Ross but with melted wax" video possibility!
My favorite thing about your channel is the fact that you just go try new things no matter how little experience you have. It is extremely motivating, because I used to never do new things because I KNEW I'd mess it up...but learning from you that it doesn't matter and is actually a good thing to fail because you LEARN has been such an amazing experience thank you
My Grandma used to make personal postcards for me and my brother by melting crayons on a steam iron then painting things like mountains and landscapes with them, Really stoked to see one of my favourite artists using this medium in the same way, really brings back nostalgia

I'm absolutely certain that Crayon has changed their formula. I used to use them specifically for linework before shading in with pencils, and I know I used to be able to build and mix color, even if it wasn't flawless (and they definitely smell different that they used to). ETA: _And_ they definitely used to be hot glue gun-able!
Poor Rob. I feel his pain with every task he's given. Nicely done! This turned out better than I thought it would. BTW, bravo to the editor of these videos. Your comedic timing is * chef's kiss *
I know! Hope Rob got to at least watch something fun while doing the boring task!
Round of applause for Rob (and the editors) everybody!
Imagine having a metallic tray with, separate compartments each filled with different coloured crayons, continuously sitting on a hot plate. Then you could use them like ink, with a paint brush, and do some really detailed work.
I'm not sure if that would work.... It is a sticky stuff, and it hardens quickly. Maybe some hard bristle brushes could live up to the job, but most certainly you will have to throw away them after. And you would need a brush per colour as you can't wash the wax out. Not even with turps as the crumbles of dry wax aren't easy to remove from anything they stick to... Or if you managed, the previous point still stands, you most likely can throw out the brush as it would be damaged beyond help after the procedure.
That kind of encaustic painting probably requires painting knives
The Crayola Experience lets you do something akin, but the problem is, the wax cools too fast. You practically have to have the hot stuff sitting ready to go intentionally to paper. Unless you're into chaotic abstract looking things. I've been more successful with crayons using watercolor paper and using a scratch method and using 93% isopropyl to sort of smooth out the colors. Similar to a method used with colored pencils. Not perfect, but nicer.
@@katalinelo8011 or you could build it in a hot box, like a sandblast cabinet with a heater piped into it, so atmospheric temperature was above the wax resolidification point, then the crayon would behave a lot more like acrylic paint.
@MsSilentlightning Batik is different in that the wax is used as a resist to prevent a dye from acting on a base material. The wax does get removed. Whereas encaustic uses and leaves the coloured wax as an integral part of the artwork.
I love how in Both of them There are some crayons still unmelted either on the sides or everywhere around and That really brings me back to the simplicity that these are just crayons❤😊
The airflow exposing the underlying layers at 10:20 reminds me of how red lacquer art is done, so many layers and patterns get revealed.
I'm spent most of my time watching this video imagining either Jazza's kids standing right off screen watching and being horrified with what Jazza is doing with Crayons, or Jazza at the store getting the Crayons and as he's walking towards the register stopping and going back to get some Crayons for his kids, so they don't fight him for the Crayons.
yes finally! I've been saying to give flamethrowers to toddlers for years!!
@Don't Read My Profile Photo dw i wasn't planning on it
Flamethrowers and nail guns are the proper toys for kids
Same. Plus chainsaws, nail gun, staple guns, and definitely small grenades.
Same!
Who didn't?
Love how you play and experiment with materials. It's very satisfying to see a talented artist let go of the rules and consistently innovate. Also... If you ever want to try drawing with crayons again, I used to draw with them on a pretty toothy brown Kraft paper (like the kind that comes in rolls for wrapping packages). The brown paper serves as a great mid-tone and takes advantage of the opacity of the waxy medium. Great for layering crosshatched built up color fields, but I'm not sure that's a style you'd favor. Another big plus for the Kraft rolls, you can make really big drawings for cheap.
Proud of Jezza, you have inspired many young people to pursue art. Congratulations on the success
As a teen who loves art I must say that having a massive studio like yours to do whatever you like is so cool and something I wanna try and work towards when I’m older
This got me thinking - now that you experienced working with wax, it would be very interesting to see you try making a batik - it's a style of art where you paint a piece of fabric using wax and dyes. Complicated but very epic :D
batik is used with pysanky too, they're a severely underrated art form
It just blows my mind to think about how much experience he has, to be able to go from dabble to dive so fast, As well as how much more he's learning in every video I'm imagining milestone-videos of him combining everything new he has learned into one epic art project... Please do that 😄
I want to ask you if you ever made Jesus your lord and your savior have you ever thought about turning to God? God loves you and wants you to come to him and he will give you salvation for free you cannot earn your way to heaven its a gift that you take from God through Jesus. Did you know that God is our Judge and even though He doesn't want anyone to go to hell alot will go there because they will try to earn there way into heaven God is our Judge and Jesus is our savior from the sins we committed. Since God's our Judge everyone will be in front of God on Judgement day some will be with Jesus and go into heaven and others God will send into Hell. This is why alot will go into He'll because they trust in there heart that there a Good person and they think that if they change there bad ways than they won't Go to Hell but since God's a Good Judge he cannot let sin be unpunished. that's like you on earth killing someone and then telling the judge you won't do it again! So don't put me in prison! That won't work. The only thing that will save you is if someone paid your fines and the judge can Justly and rightly let you out because someone paid for your fines. Jesus paid for our sins on the cross and he took the punishment of our sins on himself because He loves us he chose to die for you in hopes that you will turn to him because he knows that nothing will save you from Hell except Him except His work on the Cross. If you want to be saved tell God that you make Jesus your lord and your savior and agree and rest in that Jesus died for you and on the third day God raised Jesus from the dead Agree and rest in Jesus . "9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed."
When I was a child I would use a hot plate on low with paper on it and draw with crayons. They would go on so smooth and mix beautifully. I could be as precise or messy as I wanted. I'm 40 now and the colors never faded. My lovely aunt taught me this trick.
I think the next logical step here would be encaustic paint: essentially pigmented soy wax. Painted from melted colors kept in pans on a heated palette, using a heat gun to fuse each layer as you go.
Thank you! I was wracking my brain trying to remember the name of encaustic.
I came here to suggest that, too! Would be much easier than directly melting each crayon too but that could still be done if it gives an effect you can’t get using encaustic alone, I guess :)
pigmented beeswax actually
Also there are loads of tools you can use to paint and even draw with. From mini irons for big areas to metal pens with nibs that allow you create very fine details. Along with heated metal wire brushes as well to provide texture. It would genuinely be amazing to see what Jazza could do with an encaustic art toolkit.
My heart broke for Rob when you called out as I knew what was coming. We love you Rob and all you do to help out the channel!!!!!
I love the painting’s contrast because it’s as if the mountain is separate and colorless from the background which is being filled with color from the crayons
Wow! The melted images you made were crazy amazing, I’ve turned old crayons into crappy candles lmaooo, I never would have considered using them for art in this way. Fantastic and super fun to watch!
reminds me of the 2014 drip crayon art EVERYONE was doing… except actually cool! loving the content recently jazza!!
it was all over tumblr
I know you love making your own art supplies, I've actually made my own crayons before with paraffin wax and oil paint! It works pretty well and you can get really fine control over the color blend
How did it work with the oil paint? Did you have to wait for your art to dry or was it like using a regular crayon?
@@SpookyscarySayge It was like a normal crayon but a bit softer. Adding more paint gives a stronger pigment but softens the wax
@@NotOnLand I'll have to try that, thanks!
@@SpookyscarySayge I should mention I used the cheap paraffin Gulf Wax that comes in blocks, I broke one up with a knife and melted it in a double broiler like chocolate. When it was completely melted I added the paint, keep in mind it will get a bit lighter when it cools and may separate a bit at the top and bottom so stir it regularly. I just broke apart the big puck that formed in the bowl but you could probably pour it into molds without issue. I haven't tried much drawing with it as I mostly needed a specific color wax for a seal, but it seemed to put down color just as good as other crayons
@@NotOnLand good to know, Ill have to see if my art store has paraffin 👀
try incorporating this concept with the scratchboard techniques you learned and i think you could take both to a whole new level! keep up the good work!
Both pieces of art turned out amazing! Great job, Jazza!
As much as I love the idea of hanging a hot plate on my wall, I originally thought you were gonna transfer the pattern onto paper.
I dunno, I think Kasey Golden gets a lot of coverage in her crayon pieces. Though she does use color pencils for the lineart, which might have been the way you could have gotten crisper lines in the OG medium. That said, I am a fan of the melted look. It was interesting to see what you could come up with. I think the flame/lava look is the best approach, but I would be curious what else you could do with it.
The flame one was GLORIOUS. It really captures the feel of real flame
Very inspiring. Totally out of the box inspiration! I love the movement. Thanks for sharing. 😊
My sister did portraits of people in melted crayon. She'd block certain spaces, like how you paint watercolor. She taped off the spaces that needed to remain white then used a hair dryer to drip crayons on the canvas. She'd even mix colors by holding 2-3 crayons melting them at the same time, then pushing them around with the hair dryer on the canvas until she got the right color. It was beautiful when the tape came off, it looked exactly like watercolor but made only with melted crayons.
2:54 poor rob but at the same time you gotta give a round of applause for rob!
When I was young I would use a pencil sharpener to make kinda like crayon glitter dif colors in dif containers n glued on on my art work ...I liked what u came up with 🥰

That's rly clever. Neat idea. :3
@@pastel-sunrise thank u🤩
Love this so much! I knew I was gonna be impressed by this the moment I saw The thumbnail. Intensely inspiring and just plain creative. I want to see more- what different directions can one take crayons? also, the mountains in your first piece have almost an ocean wave effect to them. My thoughts were instantly that I’d love to see a stormy ocean scene done with crayons in this fashion. I hope to attempt this or something similar myself soon 😀 as always, thank you for the awesome content!
"I can take it further." I think that's the next step. Can you find a way to do a detailed painting with melted crayons? Could you do a human figure or dragon? Inquiring minds want to know!
This turned out so good, kinda gave me vibes of something called Encaustic art which uses wax to paint, this'll probably get lost amongst the comments but would love to see your take on that.
I think I tried melting crayons with an iron as a kid. Also had that swirling effect. I later used wax crayons that can be dissolved in water - you can get more saturation, better details and contrast - even mixing the colors is possible.
The drawing, the experimental melting "plates"/pictures all awesome. I wasn't expecting to watch the whole video. That was interesting, thank you! ... round of applause requested for Rob. 👏 Yay Rob! You're awesome!👏
Back in the 70's, our preschool teacher let us draw with crayons on the stove top when it was heated. Drawing with melting crayons were a treat!
Sounds mildly dangerous for kindergarteners but hey guess being burned is a great treat 😂 jk I'm sure it wasn't that hot. Sounds fun
@@user-sn9ve9st6w That's kind of just what the '70s were like though wasn't it
@@YayaFeiLong guess so
Been a while since I watched a Jazza vid. Glad to know he still has the same vibes but with better quality now. Wish ya the best Jazza!!
My mom is the creative one in my family and she has a special iron (as in like an iron for clothes) for melting crayons. It's essentially like you used your spatulas, but warm, so it is not as rough and you don't need to use your blow-dryer to melt it. The iron obviously doesn't have steam or anything fancy. It was specifically made for this purpose.
I can only hope he scrolled through some of my random crayon art I've been making over the years. Love this stuff. Shredding got so messy for me, but makes good art. Basic melt works great, I usually use Elmers wood glue, seems to bond to crayons better.
Oooh, if you used an electric hot plate to keep it melted you could possibly lay paper over it and make prints! This was another fun video, thank you! Bell with the bell bell 😁
A kids' center we went to had this setup! It's amazing and works really well!
Yes I’ve done this! Very fun and smooth effect.
Cool video! One tip, though: pressing harder on crayons, while making them more likely to break, makes them look better. SuperRaeDizzle actually did a cool video showing this, where she drew the Mona Lisa with crayons.
Pressing hard is needed to get any colour saturation from crayons. A good way to cramp up one's hand.
@@fredericapanon207 oh i never knew that!! it doesn't happen to me when I'm at restaurants and etc, although I am heavy handed
you can also scrape off the wax on the top of crayon art to get smoother, prettier color without the gaps left with traditional crayon art
@@Thedarkbunnyrabbit yeah truee
And then if you hit it with the heat... OMG... the colors would smooth and pop soooo hard. That's what I do!
This was fun to watch!! I could watch so much more of crayon melting and blending 🤤
In my art/mixed media art journal I use 3 things crayons, pencil sharpener ( dollar store type) and my heat tool. use the shavings and melt with heat tool making sure to hold straight up as to not blow away shavings. It's nice in a small way
Wow, those turned out beautifully, Jazza!! I've wanted to try this melted crayon art for the past few years, so perhaps this will give me the nudge (or shove) I needed to finally do it.🖍️
Congrats, you discovered Encaustic painting. Except I think you managed to make it even more difficult that is normally is lol. Cool vid
good stuff, take your first drawing and when finished put wax paper over it and then take a clothes iron set on low and apply to wax paper to melt the lines of crayon underneath. works very well and is pretty cool too. keep experimenting!!!
This channel is inspiring me to get back into art which I gave up due to life happening. I needed this to get excited about art again.

I grew up watching Art Attack. Man, I loved that show, it was fun and creative as heck. Now I'm 28 and have two girls. I'm so happy your channel will be their "Art Attack".
speaking of Art Attack, the first-ever episode actually featured an encaustic artist doing a demo as a guest on the show!
"this guy's as responsible as I am, this is great!" -Jazza while watching a guy melt then set on fire, crayons... 🤣
There is yet another way of using melted crayons to get yet a different effect. Use them to color a regular picture, like the one you drew at the begining, but AFTER that, cover the picture with paper and IRON it with a regular clothes iron. This will melt the crayon into the paper giving you a completely different effect.
I'd love to see you try encaustic art. Wax art, or melting art. In high school we used a griddle or hot plate. Had little metal tins and clear paraffin wax. We would either use Profesional wax color or you guessed it crayons. It seemed wood was a great canvas for this medium. It helped absorb, and keep it in place. Crayons also give a nice gloss finish when dry.
Yes! This was like the kid version of encaustic painting. It would be fun to see a more professional take on the theme. Plus it would give you plenty of opportunity to show off those Bob Ross-ish pallet knife skills.
Now that you dabbled we need you to dive in and try to make a seriously true masterpiece with melted crayons!! This was interesting and fun to watch, ain't going to lie going to be trying this now ✌️
Jazza : I'm gonna melt wax and see if I can make pictures.... Encaustic Art community : *raises eyebrow*
LOL! It took me quite a while to drag the name of that painting technique out of the depths of my memory.
@@fredericapanon207 I haven't done any for years, but I have all the kits and blocks of wax... Jazza has sort of inspired me to dig it out again - at least we don't have to peel the paper off a truck-load of crayons! :D
Lmao. I was thinking the same thing...this is just encaustic painting
Yes! This is what I was thinking the whole time. I kept hoping he would move into encaustics. Please try encaustics next Jazza!
LoL. And I was thinking my candle making experiments as a teen. Gulf wax, crayons, boric acid.
Hi Jazza! Did you ever try Encaustic? It´s not my favorite art, but we once did it in school. You melt crayons on a (sort of) flat iron and paint with the iron on paper. There are also very small irons to paint with, and even do scratching on the coloured Surface😊
The best way to get wrappers off any crayons is to soak them in some semi-hot water. Not lukewarm but warm enough to melt the glue-holding wrapper together but not hot enough to start melting the crayon. As an art teacher, I do this with smaller broken pieces and melt them into silicone molds to create new (differently shaped) crayons.
I love Rib for his dedication to the vids and no complaints even when asked to do the stupidest and most chaotic... if the channel is Chaotic good, Rob is 90 percent of the good, jazza is 90 percent of the chaos lmfao
So nostalgic at my preschool we had a class with melting wax crayons with an old iron for clothes that did not have a steam function. Made some very cool art.
Holy cow . That original melted rainbow art was AWESOME
When I was a teen I was introduced to something called Encaustic Art which uses a small craft iron/heating tools and crayons to create abstract or detailed art pieces - you should most definitely check it out its very relaxing and you can get some beautiful pieces!!!
Would love to see you doing Encaustic Art, which uses wax and iron to create art.
I'd love to see Jazza play with sealing wax or make his own sealing wax with crayons. Bet he'd have a blast making his own stamps for it too
What would happen to the first sketch you made with crayons (the one with you holding a crayon), if you heated it up after? Would it melt into the recess of the page? Would it blend? Also love the way the heat gun pushes with hot air, but if you left it under a low heat lamp for an hour, would that melt and blend the sketch, while maintaining the original design? (would also look good on a time lapse) Dude, this one raised more questions than it answered! Need a follow up!
You’re a huge inspiration to me Jazza!! Thanks for the videos!!
I cant go back to sleep because I'm too anxious, so thank you Jazza for this video at the perfect time😅
THIS IS ME RN
@@khamyar6121 you're not alone! Lol heard my husband leave for work and it woke me up. I get anxiety attacks sometimes when I'm alone so I freaked out a bit and saw Jazza's notification and it distracted me lol
I love art. But I've never commented about art before. But the "hot plate" piece was one of the very art pieces that I said "wow" softly at first glance. It described my soul.
I miss jazza teaching me to draw but I also love happy jazza doing whatever makes him happy, so as long as that is this, than AMAZING! 🥰✌️✨️
These turned out awesome! The Bob Ross inspired one is my favorite! But can they be hung up in a home? I suspect dust would stick to the wax like it does old candles. Also, during a heat wave... lol
I hope you do take it further. I want more crayon melting art. Maybe 3d if possible. It's so cool to watch!
Lightbox. Replace the internal light with a heat lamp. Paper on top, heat from the lamp will melt the crayons as you draw, and as it will stay liquid/soft because warm, you are able to blend, scrape to get fast broad coverage, and use various tools (I use sculpting tools) to scratch textures into the crayon, which you can overlay with different colours to get outlines and shaded textural lines.
I love these effects from the crayons, Both finished pieces looked incredible!! You left me wondering what if you add heat to the first picture you made?? Would it melt the crayons on the page filling in the gaps in the water colour paper?? 🤔🤔🤔
That's what I was hoping to see as well.
This man always tries to do something and extra ordinary and make his audience feel excited for every next,love you
This is such a bot comment, this can literally be said to any youtuber with good content.
I have always had crayons and coloring books on hand and I am 53 years old. Crayons are not just for kids. It is so freeing just to sit down with a cup of coffee or tea in the quiet and let your mind roam as you create something fun or beautiful.
10:53 I love unintentional artwork, there's a face in the middle of the canvas. Some random dude giving you an eyebrow while smiling with a large nose and a 'lit' beard.
