Reading art is often 'harder' than reading a book.

This was a great read. Loved how you drew the parallel between aspirational imagery from the past and the present, and how they’re still deceiving and don’t accurately represent reality. I never thought about it from your perspective until now. I tended to quickly cast blame on new technology for the modern Instagram craze of creating deceivingly perfect pictures. It goes to show that our tools are just tools, whether it’s just a brush or a phone. It’s our flawed perceptions/standards that are the problem.

Thank you for expanding my thinking! 🙌
