[307] Art for Les Demoiselles d'Avignon

Today's update is based off of Pablo Picasso's 1907 African influenced/pre-cubism piece, [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_Demoiselles_d'Avignon]Les Demoiselles d'Avignon.

I would like to argue that the original piece is reputable fine art before anyone gets offended for the "quote, unquote" nudity in today's strip. If anyone finds it inappropriate then why bother exposing young children to museums? The setting of this piece was in a brothel and the subjects are prostitutes. However those two facts do not make it any less stunning of an art piece.

Fine Art Sundays
I have decided to change the routine of my comic and will reserve Sundays updates for the awareness of fine art. These updates will be a blend of my current style with the original work to make it look like the style of the time with a modern twist on it.

My original intent for this project is to expose art to a wider audience instead of having them restricted to the confines of museums. I'm also going to feature works that I personally adore and would display on a wall in my apartment.
