Found object art featuring a blue broken crayon. Out of the broken crayon, we see a blue frog emerging, with linework looking as if it is drawn with blue crayon. The frog is eyeing a fly, who is zooming in from one side. Art by Debbie Ridpath Ohi.

Iโ€™ve been thinking of starting a What ifโ€ฆ art series. Like, what if King Arthur was steampunk, and similar alternate scenarios to classics. What are some what ifโ€ฆ ideas that youโ€™ve thought about?

Even if you arenโ€™t planning to eat it, you still use your hands to rub the cream in. If some remains on your hands even after washing, you could accidentally ingest.
