Art Direction - CSS

If a post is to have custom art direction, the markup should live in front matter called art:. Indent markup 2 spaces. It will be included in an otherwise empty, unstyled <div> with a class of art-top.
Custom styles for that post should be placed in a .scss file within templates/_scss/posts/post-date-and-name.scss. Sass file should be named the exact name of the post. Update the CSS: front-matter to match the file name (no extension) of the Sass file.
CSS classes and IDs should begin with art- as a module name. Since art directed CSS files are page-specific, there's no need to worry about overlapping styles in the future!
