Periodic Table of Elements Illustrated As Characters
Kaycie Dunlap chose to combine her love of art with science.
Therefore she created her own version of the periodic table of elements illustrated as characters.
Kaycie decided to use art to try and teach science in a fun and creative way. Hoping helpfully reach an entirely new audience. For that reason, she has drawn inspiration from modern pop culture and ambitiously drew 112 characters, each representing a different element.
“An artist from birth, I was the kid who drew in a class all the time. This phase perpetuated well into art school.
First of all, it was a place where it was actually OK to draw in class!
Drawn in pencil and colored in Photoshop, I took my first love of characters. Lastly, I combined it with a strong idea to create these 112 illustrations.” Kacie Dunlap

With great anticipation, it is now time to wish all of you a happy kazoo day!
Did you know that January 28th is officially Kazoo Day?
The kazoo, also known as the “Down-South Submarine,” has deep roots. Similar types of instruments were long been used for ceremonial purposes in Africa in the 1840s.
African-American Alabama Vest and clock-maker Thaddeus Von Clegg was the musical hero who reworked and made into the kazoo into the fun-loving instrument we know it as today.
Folks of all ages fell in love with the uplifting sounds of the Kazoo, but commercial production of the Kazoo wouldn’t begin until 1912.
In honor of this very special day of Kazoos, below is a brief history of the kazoo and an awesome retro Kazoo commercial from 1989.
This video was created by Boaz, a curator of the Kazoo Museum.
“Sometimes Boaz hosts bicycle talk shows, sometimes Boaz makes short films and sometimes Boaz makes other things.”
This kid sure does love his kazoo, if nothing else you might get a laugh from this retro video.
