Artist Interview | Herb Williams
Herb Williams is an incredibly talented sculptor bringing crayons to a whole new dimension. I sat down to talk to Williams about his background, his artistic influences, and exactly how and why he uses crayons to sculpt. He shared his memories of making art as a child as well as his experience working in a foundry making lost wax castings before he decided to pursue a literal dream of making sculptures out of crayons.
If the name Herb Williams sounds familiar, you may recall I talked about him in my crayon episode of Art Smart. I mentioned that I am writing an article for The Art of Education University's magazine about Williams, Stark and DesLongchamp (probably to be released late March or possibly in April). In the meantime, if you want to learn more about Stark or DesLongchamp, check out my Art Smart episodes about paper and markers respectively. I also did an episode of Who ARTed about Tom DesLongchamp back in December of 2023.
