Last week was a busy one at PicsArt. We released new clipart packages, saw some very exciting art emerge from our weekly contests, released a fascinating tutorial on using negative space, featured some awesome artists from our very own community, and that\u2019s not even the half of it. We also took a look back at some of the major milestones that PicsArt achieved in it\u2019s second year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A lot happens in two years, but a lot also happens in 7 days, so every week, we do a quick recap to get you up to speed and let you catch up on anything that you may have let slip through the cracks.<\/p>\n

PicsArtists had a folding frendzy for our Origami Weekend Art Project, submitting 556 photos of the ancient Japanese artform over the weekend. User Em D (@erndawg0420) showed us the money and took home the gold, by folding up a one dollar bill.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Origami<\/p>\n

Best of the Blog<\/span><\/h2>\n

Balancing Positive and Negative Space in Photography <\/a><\/h3>\n

One of the more forgotten components of photo composition is the concept of negative vs. positive space. Simply put, positive space comprises of the main subject, and all the area it occupies. Negative space, on the other hand, is everything else – the surroundings, the background, even supporting elements and things that interact with the subject itself.<\/p>\n

PicsArt Reaches Major Milestones as it Turns 2 Years Old <\/a><\/h3>\n

PicsArt turned 2 years old, and we have left behind us a trail of accomplishments that we are proud of. Here is a look at how far we\u2019ve come over the past year.<\/p>\n

The Travel Photography of PicsArtist Stefano Costa <\/a><\/h3>\n

We’re not even through with the fall yet, and plenty of us are already sick of the winter and yearning for a vacation to some sunny coastal paradise. Travel photography is a work around that costs a lot less than a plane ticket or hotel, and PicsArtist Stefano Costa happens to have some stunning shots of places that make you dream.<\/p>\n

User Feedback From Google Play<\/span><\/h2>\n

Here are some of things users are saying about PicsArt on Google-Play:<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Vader Bright: <\/strong>Not only a photo editor<\/em><\/p>\n

This is absolutely amazing.first of all, it does its job well in the photo editing, but then you find out you get to draw awesome things on your phone or tablet! And then you find out that you can have a contest of the drawings or picture type like vintage or samurai drawings. You also can get followers and likes on your picture. 5 stars. YOU ARE AWSOME THANK YOU.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks everyone for giving us another memorable week at PicsArt. As long as you guys are busy creating and sharing art on PicsArt, we\u2019ll be busy making the app as great as it can be, and keeping our blog stocked with interesting and inspiring content!<\/p>\n
