Description
While many aspiring artists don't necessarily identify with STEM subjects, and many young inventors don't see the need for art, one is essential to the other. Revealing this connection and encouraging kids to explore it fills hungry minds with tools essential to problem solving and creative thinking.
Each of the projects in this book is designed to demonstrate that the deeper you look into art, the more engineering and math you'll find. There's a science to great art. From graphite circuit comic books to edible stained glass, young engineers and artists alike will find inspiration.

About the Author
Liz Heinecke has never been able to choose between art and science. She studied art and biology in college before doing laboratory research for ten years and getting a master's degree in bacteriology. Her multi-disciplinary background came in handy when she started doing science at home with her three kids, journaling their experiments and adventures on KitchenPantryScientist.com. Today, Liz calls on her science and art skills daily as she appears regularly on television, makes science videos, draws diagrams and writes about science online and in books. Liz's work includes Kitchen Science Lab for Kids and Outdoor Science Lab for Kids.
