Artists and other creatifs (is that a french word? seems like it could be) are provided a yellow #2 pencil and asked to make it into art. The variations are displayed as an exhibit.

There could be rules about how much you can add to the pencil. Or maybe not - so if you wanted to make The Discus Thrower out of ambergris with the pencil behind his ear, ok.

       If you replace "pencil" with "ivory", the result is known as "scrimshaw".   

       This Idea might not be sufficiently original to survive.
