(https://aclum.org/about/staff-advocates/carol-rose/). In this article Carol is speaking about how tattoos are too a form of art. You paint with paint brushes and a canvas, you take photographs with a camera and film, and you tattoo on an individual's skin, they are all forms of art. No Carol doesn't have any tattoos, but that doesn't affect her opinion on it still being art. Everyone should be able to express themselves no matter what the

So why should we as people be able to express our artistic fews legally where we want to. I feel that since tattoos are a form or art and have been for many years then all forms of art should be illegal then too. But thats not going to happen. I personally feel that the argument Carol Rose is arguing is an effective argument. I personally have tattoos and every one of this is something different, they are all something deer to me and I use my body art to express that love. Individuals use different ways to express there artistic self. The way they dress, there job, there writings,
