My mom, God bless her heart, never had any dollies when she was a little girl; so the majority of my parent's gifts to me were dolls, even collectible ones that I wasn't allowed to touch (try telling that to a 5 year old!) ;) I just remembered my first art supply experiment. I somehow got it in my head that it would be neat to find out what hot water would do to a crayon. I did this in the white marble bathroom sink, when I was probably about 7 years old. When I realized the disaster of yellow crayon coating the bathroom sink I promptly tried to clean it up with a sharp edge that left nicks in the sink... I think that was my first art experiment gone wrong! ;) I guess there's a little mad-scientist in most of us artists!

I did get a microscope when I was 7, and that was probably what set me down the science path as I never looked back after that. But it was always the orderly, scientific, color theory and paint aspects of art that drew me anyway. At least at first. I love your salt and pepper ideas. I should SO do that!
