Buck Rogers Crayon Ship by K Henderson

 

 

Buck Rogers Crayon Ship, 24 x 18, oil on cradled board

I enjoyed painting my Felix the Cat pencil box so much that I went looking for more pencil boxes. Buck Rogers Crayon Ship caught my eye because of the bright colors and, well, it's really cool!

I'll be creating another painting using this box because it has great graphics on the back, too. The 'chalk drawings' (yes, these are painted with oil paint) are also based on the graphics from this box.

Flight of Fancy, 12 x 12, oil on canvas

This Trompe L'Oeil features a page from a coloring book showing Mickey Mouse in his airplane. The page is artfully colored with the crayons shown in the tin box. The owl on the vintage chalk board completes the Flight theme. 

The original Oil painting has sold but prints are available in My Etsy Shop

This is a detail of my painting  Buck Rogers Crayon Ship. The painting will be shown at CK Contemporary Gallery. Show opens May 16

This is "school crayon" No. 019 made by American Pencil Company New York in 1936.  One side of the box depicts Buck and Wilma looking through a porthole . The opposite side depicts "Buck Rogers Crayon Ship" with die-cut square on right where pencils are visible and completes the ship design. The box contains six  multi-colored pencils.

The 'chalk drawings' (yes, these are painted with oil paint) are also based on the graphics from this box.
