When you see a mostly blank red canvas on a @Starbucks cup are you upset because you felt entitled to what was there before?

Or do you see an opportunity for free expression?

Do you interpret such a passive absence of decoration as an active war on your assumed monoculture beliefs?

Or do you see the emptiness as an encouragement for anyone to express their varied beliefs or whatever they are inspired to draw?

Do you merely consume others’s art?

Or do you brave putting pen to cup and create like no one is watching?

This cup is from a trip my mom & I took to my hometown Starbucks (which wasn't there when it was my home) this past Saturday. Of course thoughts of #Paris were present so I drew an Eiffel Tower.

Entitlement vs #opportunity.
Monoculture consumption vs a #plurality of #production.
Spoonfed content vs #freedom of #expression.

Where do you stand?

It’s your choice. You can still choose.
