Fan Art Fridays: Jada Pinkett Smith
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably heard about Jada Pinkett Smith, Will Smith and Spike Lee’s decision to boycott the Oscar’s this year due to the lack of African-Americans nominated for awards in the past two award shows.

If you’ve ridden the A, C, or E train to Chambers Street in NYC, or ever waited for one of those trains underground, you’ve probably noticed a bunch of eyeballs staring at you.

Fan Art Fridays: Lorde

Gallery Mondays: Walking Across the Brooklyn Bridge
Last week I went to Tavola on 9th Ave in NYC with some coworkers for our holiday party. On the wall near the window of the restaurant there was this lovely painting that looked like a photograph. I honestly would have went on thinking it was a photograph if I hadn’t gotten closer to it.…
