I have very mixed feelings about Photoshop. Yes, its invention has allowed for the creation of many awesome works. However, it has allowed for the pure fabrication of a lot of things–it’s hard to tell what’s real anymore…I think a perfect example of this is the airbrushing that goes on with all of the pictures that appear in magazines. A lot of these women–while already thin and beautiful–are enhanced in ways to make them look even more flawless. This creates an ideal as well as an impossible standard that many young girls attempt to emulate. Therefore, just like all things, under the right circumstances, Photoshop can be an incredible tool for artistic creation; however, under the wrong ones and with “improper” use, it becomes just another weapon aimed at society. On a side note, though, I really do love using Photoshop 🙂
