Unwanted Visitor, Melting Crayon Flame Sculptures

“Unwanted Visitor: Portrait of Wildfire” by artist Herb Williams is an installation of flame-shaped crayon sculptures that are designed to slowly melt in the sun over the course of several months, in an effort to raise awareness about wildfires. The sculptures are on display at the National Ranching Heritage Center in Lubbock, Texas through February, 2012.
