Never good enough

Description

In this photo the Barbie resembles 'perfection', and even though there's nothing wrong with her she still seeks perfection through plastic surgeries. The irony.. And that's how it is with most of us girls, we're never satisfied with our selves, we're always seeking perfection, but after all, imperfection is perfection. ;)
(I know she kinda looks like a gypsy, but they're supposed to be 'pre-plastic surgery' marks.)

I personally disagree with what *KeithEKimball wrote about using Barbie and the lines. Imo, the perpetuality actually helps your message. Everyone knows Barbie, Western civilisation's "perfect role model", and the lines they use for plastic surgery. By using two major symbols you immediately evoke the concept of unrealistic physical perfection. These are THE symbols of fake beauty, so if you want to call upon that idea, there isn't anything else you can use without involving surgical equipment or whatever other weird stuff, and without getting dark and gloomy.

And I personally am not a fan of 'hard-to-understand' art, if you have to think real hard about the message, then the message isn't formed well enough. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/h…" width="15" height="15" alt=":hmm:" title="hmm"/>

Plus, to me it's an original image. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/n/n…" width="15" height="15" alt=":nod:" title="Nod"/> I've never seen a Barbie with surgical lines before...

So in short, great job! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w…" width="23" height="23" alt=":w00t:" title="w00t!"/>
