We are always on the lookout for a great challenge and editing opportunity. And <\/span>our Master\u2019s program<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>a community of some of our most active and talented creators, is consistently at the frontline of creative edits and fun challenges, including the Masters of the Year tournament.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the Masters of the Year Tournament?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Originally proposed by Master Contributor <\/span>@youevil<\/span><\/a> in 2021, the Masters of the Year tournament is a bracket-style competition where Masters compete to hold the Master of the Year title in Image Editing, Original Photography, Original Drawing, Original Replay, and Original Sticker.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In each round of the tournament, Masters vote for their favorite submissions, and those with the most votes progress onto the next round. We had so many great entries this year that it was difficult to narrow it down to only one image per category.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After several rounds of voting, we\u2019re excited to announce the winners of this year\u2019s Masters of the Year Tournament. Find out who won and join us in celebrating them below.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Master of the Year, Image Editing: @wilmanaro<\/span><\/h2>\n

His Picsart profile is packed full of dream-like otherworldly edits that will leave your jaw on the floor. @wilmanaro says \u201cAs a history buff, I was curious to know how artists of the past brought such wonderful works of art to life.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

His best advice? \u201cGiving depth to edits is important, as well as giving it a dirty feel to make it more realistic.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Master<\/p>\n

Master of the Year, Original Photography: jcervay<\/span><\/h2>\n

An ever talented Master Storyteller, <\/span>@jcervay<\/span><\/a>\u2019s account is full of both amazing photography and innovative surrealist edits. If you\u2019re looking for a little inspiration of your own to get started, @jcervay recommends that you \u201cfind your own style. I’ve spent too many hours trying to emulate other\u2019s work. While it does push me to improve, I wasn’t happy until I let myself edit how I liked. And always be prepared to get down on the ground to get better angles. Photography that captures the subject from an unexpected angle is much more interesting.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Looking to improve your Picsart photography edits? @jcervay shares her favorite Picsart hack for editing photos. \u201cI love the <\/span>color replace tool<\/span><\/a>, even to slightly change background colors to make a more cohesive color scheme.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Master<\/p>\n

Master of the Year, Original Drawing: @annaradchenko1<\/span><\/h2>\n

Our Master Storyteller <\/span>@annaradchenko1<\/span><\/a> takes her work to the beyond. She combines vibrant hues with fantasy-like imagery. Her best advice is, <\/span>\u201cfor those who want to start drawing, I would advise you to first choose a convenient application program and then try to do the work. Start small and learn further by taking it step by step.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Be sure to check out her profile to see her stunning drawings and surreal edits. It\u2019s the perfect place to find the colorful and imaginative inspiration you\u2019re looking for.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Master<\/p>\n

Master of the Year, Original Replay: @orient_arts<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re looking to add something extra to your edits, look no further than <\/span>@orient_art<\/span><\/a>\u2019s replays! <\/span>Replays<\/span><\/a> are a great way to see the editing processes and steps creators take to make their pieces so impressive. You can also use them to apply a similar edit to any of your own photos. <\/span>@orient_arts says when making your own edits to \u201cbe patient, use your imagination, and be creative.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He always tries to give his \u201cimagination free rein\u201d and \u201cexperiment until happy with the result.\u201d On Picsart, he shares that he loves using the brushes and the lens flare tools to elevate his sensational creations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Master<\/p>\n

Master of the Year, Original Sticker: @universalsouls_art<\/span><\/h2>\n

Adding original stickers to your Picsart edits is a great way to elevate your creations and add something special to make your piece uniquely yours. And <\/span>@universalsouls_art<\/span><\/a> has some great tips when it comes to <\/span>making your own stickers<\/span><\/a>. Sometimes it\u2019s as easy as just getting started!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to @universalsouls_art, the best way to start making stickers is to \u201c<\/span>create them! Never overthink an art project \u2013 keep it simple. Artists make it look easy with a finished product but you don\u2019t see all the scribbles and mistakes that lead there. Keep it fun, art should be easy, not stressful. Be willing to try new things and use tools to experiment.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Her best editing trick? \u201cLearn to use layers!\u201d she says. \u201cThey only <\/span>seem<\/span><\/i> overwhelming. The layers in <\/span>Draw<\/span><\/i> tools are no different than a stack of drawing paper, except you get an undo button and the ability to rearrange without having to start over.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
