Having such a diverse community allows us to learn about everything from the <a href=\"https:\/\/picsart.com\/blog\/post\/island-life-picsartist-ana-rita-sousa\" rel=\"nofollow\">Barbados of Terceira Island<\/a> to the Shipwreck of Dimitrios and to appreciate beauty throughout the globe.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For the last few months, I have been featuring PicsArtists far and wide. A few weeks ago, I finally took a moment to look around me \u2014 literally. I scanned my colleagues and friends here at PicsArt who work hard to make the app and community happen. Many of them double as PicsArtists and are quite active in our community. I thought to introduce you to some of my colleagues, because they are inspiring, wonderful and also very talented.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/76560793361\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn17.picsart.com\/76560793361.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"picsart senior engineer Ani\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Ani is a Senior Developer at PicsArt and joined the team as it was being created. She graduated from the State Engineering University of Armenia with a Master\u2019s in Computer Science and was recruited by PicsArt straight out of university.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">As part of the original PicsArt team, I asked Ani what she is most proud of. \u201cI like that it is for everyone,\u201d she said. \u201cPicsArt gives us all the freedom to create art.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/162050441000201\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn27.picsart.com\/162050441000201.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"photos that make smile\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">As for Ani the PicsArtist, she loves to capture that which makes her happy. At home, Ani and her husband Vahe are parents to the very precious Gayane. The couple\u2019s adorable daughter is nine months old, and every time she visits the office we swarm around her gushing over her infectious smile.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/152959200000201\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn31.picsart.com\/152959200000201.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"great memories at PicsArt\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cI love to capture heartening moments with my loving friends, supportive coworkers, and doting family. I love recording my daughter\u2019s little accomplishments and even her everyday routine. Nature is also a favorite subject of mine,\u201d shares Ani.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/163754442000201\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn59.picsart.com\/163754442000201.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"little princess Gayane\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">After a full day of work \u2014 and once Gayane is asleep \u2014 Ani follows contests, checks her notifications, and comments on photos. \u201cI also read feedback and comments about the app and tools. It\u2019s very interesting to see how PicsArtists receive the new features we develop.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/40256996068\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn14.picsart.com\/40256996068.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"inspirational photos\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Since she is one of the most active PicsArtists in our office, she is on top of any app issues that may arise. \u201cWhen PicsArt is experiencing server problems, I run to the team that works on this and let them know that I can not get any PicsArting done. I feel like I am speaking on behalf of all of us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Although she uses most of the Photo Studio tools, she has a special affinity for Shape Masks and Effects. You can see this in her Gallery, which is full of charming and warm photos.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/163429401001201\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn21.picsart.com\/163429401001201.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"inspiring photos\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cPicsArt has changed my life. It has helped me to see the beauty of everything around me and everyone I meet. It has helped me to be more creative and has urged me to be more responsible in spreading beauty throughout the world. PicsArt beautified my day, my life, and my world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/77627884710\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn17.picsart.com\/77627884710.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"favorite places\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">As for PicsArt, we are very fortunate to have dedicated PicsArtists like Ani on our team who believe in our mission and help make it a reality.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/154970502000201\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn20.picsart.com\/154970502000201.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"favorite dish\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/161434351000201\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn25.picsart.com\/161434351000201.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"picsart clipart raw material\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/9547878908\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn9.picsart.com\/9547878908.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"the lake Sevan\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/145265767000201\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn26.picsart.com\/145265767000201.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"beautiful start of the day\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/9713311449\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn9.picsart.com\/9713311449.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"Geghard Monestry, Armenia\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/163581584001201\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn27.picsart.com\/163581584001201.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"winter and church\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/1674745619\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn1.picsart.com\/1674745619.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"amuzement park in yerevan\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/142265989000201\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn27.picsart.com\/142265989000201.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"picture of a chamomile \" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/170318136001201\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn48.picsart.com\/170318136001201.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"apples and pears\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/i\/169458962000201\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn58.picsart.com\/169458962000201.jpeg?r640x640\" alt=\"creative stuff\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This story was prepared by PicsArt\u2019s Community Editor, Madlene (<a href=\"http:\/\/madlene_pa.picsart.com\/#146777193000102\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">@madlene_pa<\/a>).
