Description:
Once she found that she liked the grayscale options, Sarah decided to transform half of her color blocks into grayscale. It's name sake is from the New York Beauty block, also known as Lady Liberty, and the Shadow portion is a social commentary on the fact that the liberty experienced by some people in America is not the same as the liberty experienced by others, it's just a shadow.
