BadArt When you think of using colored pencils as an art medium
you think of something that looks like a pencil drawing, right? Well guess again. Looking at the images on the BadArt homepage
you'd swear that you were looking at a photograph! If you don't think these are pencil renderings, check out some other
artists at the CPSA gallery.

mold making.
