In the last months of 2015 several things have happened, the world that revolves around Photoshop was restless, and how it's wrong?
Some new in the world of graphics that could affect not only designers. Yes, because the graphics using Photoshop constantly are well informed about the world of digital graphics and all its innovations and even contradictions, if you are not designers I keep informed.
Already in 2014 there was talk of Photoshop as evil incarnate. Above all guilty of all the celebrities on platforms such as Instagram they decided to rejuvenate, embellish, stretch, lose weight and look more beautiful.
There are several videos that illustrate this trend, one is the famous video produced by Dove for the campaign “Real beauty”, where a normal beauty girl is transformed, between makeup and photo retouching, in a normal girl wearing makeup… Maybe a little sexier.

Another video I posted here on the blog and shows you, guess what, a normal girl retouched photo is made a lot more sexy.
Okay, but is this new? I do not think, is a lot that we wonder if what we see in the cover of the best known magazine is the result of work in the gym or not.
David Lopera as Botero
It seems that perhaps we need to think in contrast. So instead of seeing beautiful girls that are punched with the reality we must focus on the contrary and excesses and imitate Botero's art.
The Spanish artist David Lopera get fat actresses and famous models. It would be a counter trend funny and ironic. Although, as you read the comments left on his page, not everyone appreciate the philosophy of the artist.
Dream on
After this media storm, that does not seem to want to appease, the 19 February 2015 it was the birthday of Photoshop. From version 1.0 to the current version have gone well 25 years and from the first edited photo.
