In the middle stretch of November, PicsArt is buzzing along with fresh artwork, big releases, and reads you’ll only find on our Daily Journal.
Of course, the top item from last week was our November issue of PicsArt Monthly, which hit the internet with cover to cover exclusives on everything from public transit for photographers to our interview with Kirsty Mitchell, the former clothing designer who builds fairy tales in her backyard. It is definitely an issue you don’t want to miss.
That was just the first and biggest item in what was a colorful parade of great stuff that marched on throughout the week. Users edited some exclusive photos from Hilary Duff’s latest music video shoot, which she shared right on her PicsArt account. We also held a nail biting centaur Drawing Challenge and posted our top 10 new artists, a guide to Mexico’s 6 most magical sights, some pro tips on cityscape photography and more.
Catch up on all of last week’s juiciest bits below, and leave us a comment to let us know what you got up to last week!
