Evolving technologies create new opportunities in art by blurring the barrier between the artist’s imagination and the final artwork. With today’s possibilities of augmenting and photo editing by clicking on a few buttons in an app within seconds, it seems that anyone can create digital art. So we want to bring to the spotlight an artist who still relies on her skills and avid creativity and masterfully uses good trusty Photoshop in her time-consuming unique images that look like it belongs on the cover of a book or movie.

Ukrainian digital artist and photo editor Viktoria Solidarnyh reveals that Photoshop is far from magic by uncovering what goes into her fairytale-like photo manipulations. She combines multiple ordinary and often unrelated images to create mystical Photoshop art. By deconstructing each of her final works into puzzle pieces, she shows how intricate and thought-out her work is.

"I want to express my unlimited gratitude for the article published two years ago by Bored Panda. Thanks to it, I believed in my strength and talent!" the artist told Bored Panda.
