But is it Art? (Labor Rights Edition)

Will get a real life soon for blog purposes. This cutie caught my eye among the adverts on my way out of Temple’s cafeteria. I think this is art. It’s definitely art because she’s framed sorta off center; her bangs are nestled in that rule of thirds (of course I have no clue what I’m talking... Read More
