Crayon Chemistry Sets by QueInteresante

Learning to color within the lines is an important lesson as a child, and one I quite honestly still havent mastered, but kids’ brains are all spongey for new knowledge, so these specialized labels can help them learn their chemical compounds at the same time. These are stick-on labels you can buy in sets over at etsy. Force your kid to learn while they’re drawing on your walls!

“The Greatest City on Earth”: is an ongoing series of skylines by artist, Linda Zacks. Linda’s art reflects her passion for the city of New York; she uses a combination of imagery and materials to capture the vitality of the urban, modern experience “that turns a jackhammer into a musical instrument.”  This ongoing series is inspired by the constantly evolving energy of the cityscape. Zacks’ powerful body of work captures the life and emotion in a city skyline evoking the frenetic and visceral to the quiet and serene moments that mark the experience of daily life in The Greatest City on Earth

Underwater Ink Photography by Alberto Seveso

Seveso’s silky plumes of technicolored magma that seems to flow up from vents in the ocean has a slightly more mundane explanation: the artist drops different colored inks into water and captures the velvety aftermath, though the results are just as stimulating.
