Last Contact- Isabel Ferreira

I wanted to take a closer look at this piece because it is actually a digital print, not a photograph or a painting.  Lately I've been a bit horrified/fascinated by the proliferation of digitally adjusted cat photos that abound on the internet.  This print gives hope to those who romanticize Photoshop as an artistic tool- Ferreira has used the medium to aestheticize her image, adding texture and interest, unifying the colour scheme and streamlining the composition.
