Typography – the age old conundrum so many of us face when looking to define our branding, create beautiful assets, and make a visual impact. Monotype recently released their 2025 Re:Vision Report, an exploration into the future of typography. Considering elements such as sound, cultural conditioning, and innovation this report dives into the nitty gritty of what makes a type trend and why these become popularized. Our designers have taken their own inspiration from Re:Vision, showing you exactly how you can apply some of these predictions and suggestions into your own content. No matter if you’re looking for some ideas for promotional assets, or you’re trying to define the future aesthetic of your eMagazine, there’s something for everyone. 

Sound and Vision 

Typography allows you to express sound through visuals. Think about what you’re looking to convey, and the tone you’re looking to communicate. This type should make you feel something. Choose to go bold to convey shouting, opt for something sophisticated to replicate a whisper, or play on nostalgia to show a friendly conversation. In this vase, we’ve gone for the Souveir typeface for a welcoming appeal. 

Human types 

With this style of typography, you have an opportunity to adopt a futuristic feel. The mechanical, or computer-made, appearance of this type brings us into this new age of AI. To take things one step further, you could even choose an AI Text Style on Picsart that fits this theme. Here, we’ve used Din Pro to capture the essence of technology.

Freedom, law and order 

We’ve had some fun with this theme, drawing upon both legal and real life cookies. Whether as an annoyance while you’re browsing online, or a treat to look forward to at the end of a long day, cookies are a constant in our lives. Here we’ve placed an image of delicious stacked cookies, with a contrasting serious typeface, ITC Blair.

Life cycle 

As time rolls on, it’s no secret that our senses start to change slightly. With this image, our designer has played with the concept of an eye examination board. This highlights the need for businesses to consider legibility for all ages and abilities. The bold typeface used to portray this message is Futura Now.

Conflict and peace 

This style is all about contrast: finding harmony in balance. Strong text can be used to draw attention to a message, perfect for a CTA. Here, lines, shapes, colors, and typography, each with their own significant visual impact, have been applied against each other. However, when paired, the visual elements work well together, creating peace from conflict. The text is striking and clear, while the rounded edges create a welcoming look. The typeface used here is ITCAvantGarde. 

Hot and wet

Think of tropical rain forests, nature in the summer, and high humidity. To mimic these environments, note the varied use of greens. Focusing on earthy tones, this image encapsulates natural beauty, showcasing how this may be translated into typeface choices. Here, the typeface AshleyScript is used.

Typography can be used as a powerful tool that can evoke emotions, convey messages, and define the identity of your brand. Monotype’s 2025 Re:Vision Report has given a glimpse into the future, and is sure to serve as inspiration for a new generation of designers, eager to experiment with type in innovative ways. Typography offers endless possibilities for creative expression. Embrace these predictions and adapt them to your content and branding as needed. Let your typography tell a story of its own.

There’s no doubt that AI is changing the world. It’s now found in our work processes, on our phones, in the way we receive customer service, and so much more. As a result, we’re seeing increases in productivity, an expansion of creative possibilities, and the offer of help whenever we need it. A recent survey by Picsart found that over 78% of small business owners already use AI tools for marketing purposes. As AI continues to evolve and more companies begin to adopt it as part of their offering, we can expect to see innovative tools continue to weave their way into our lives.

Thibault Imbert, Chief Product Officer at Picsart, has a vision for exactly that: how AI can be used to improve day-to-day tasks and operations while providing more opportunities for all. Picsart remains at the forefront of these exciting developments, constantly developing and improving new tools to make creative processes more accessible and efficient, while still producing high-quality outputs.

AI’s Impact on Search and Content Creation

The way we search online continues to evolve over time. In the early days of wide-scale internet adoption, asking a search engine full sentence questions was commonplace. However, over time, using simple keywords became the new norm, omitting unnecessary words and punctuation from searches completely. Now, search engines are adopting AI features, giving searchers a brief overview of the information from the top results. Many are now turning to AI tools altogether to complete necessary research.

Thibault shares his own experience of this shift: “I personally don’t search as much anymore. For anything related to work, passion, or hobbies (anything that’s not shopping) I use GPT or some type of LLM. It’s so much better because a lot of the content that shows up first today has been gamified by backlinks and ads.”

This insight into the new ways we search and research opens up a world of possibilities. AI is delivering more personalized and relevant results, while also disrupting traditional content monetization models.

In terms of content creation, AI is streamlining workflows, boosting efficiency, and enabling creators to work more effectively than ever before. Thibault notes, “It’s a key part of my workflow and I see it with all the people around me. There’s definitely a transformation happening.” This transformation is paving the way for more innovation and creativity across industries.

Picsart’s AI Strategy and Technological Advantage

Picsart embraced AI early on, pioneering wide-scale use of AI for design. As a company, Picsart is unique in its approach to its use of AI.

Thibault explains, “Unlike some companies that are providing and betting on just one model, we take an approach where we’re using the best models for their purpose. If you want to create the best logo with AI, we have the best technology behind the scenes to do that. If you want to create beautiful stock photography, we have the best model. That is something pretty unique that not a lot of players are doing.” This strategic approach allows Picsart to offer specialized tools that simplify complex creative processes (which would otherwise require a professional skill set) while accelerating productivity, without sacrificing creativity.

The Rise of AI Agents and Automation

As AI agents continue to develop and evolve, the opportunity for increased capacity continues to grow. 

Thibault highlights the potential of AI agents: “A lot of people have talked about agentic workflow, or AI agents. An AI agent is an AI that has long-term memory, the ability to have autonomy and be proactive. That becomes extremely powerful. I think we’re going to have an explosion of agents that are working with other agents, which becomes exponential.”

With AI agents now capable of proactively thinking ahead rather than just reacting to tasks, automation is poised to reach new heights. “Let’s say that you’re working on automating your marketing. Now that AI agent is creating content for you proactively, based on the next season, like Black Friday or Christmas.” Here, Thiabult demonstrates the potential for AI to act as an additional member of a marketing team, always ready to work on your next project.

Making Creativity Accessible to All

One of the most exciting aspects of AI is its ability to reduce the barrier to entry for creativity, allowing more people to express themselves and create content without needing advanced technical skills.

Thibault sees AI as a tool for unlocking talents in a whole range of areas: “It’s going to help so many people realize that they have a talent by reducing the barrier to entry to many things. It’s exactly that for creativity. It’s going to be the same thing for math. I think it’s going to be the same for a lot of things. It’s a big deal.”

AI tools are already empowering users in countless fields. “Today you can use a text-to-image tool and start using that for mood boarding or prototyping,” he explains. Thibault gives the example of planning your own home renovations.

“Let’s say you want to renovate your kitchen. In the past, you had to go through these tools that would be tedious and outdated to visualize in 3D, and then put a mood board together to decide on the type of kitchen you want. But now you can take a picture of the kitchen that you have today, and restyle it in the way you like that you found online. It’s incredible.” This reduces the need for a specialized skill set at every stage, and instead creates new possibilities for a wider audience, as AI provides new found accessibility to design.

Future of Picsart and AI-First Design

Looking ahead, Picsart is committed to AI-powered automation to provide high-quality content creation, while helping to increase productivity. Thibault has likened AI to being a creator’s new brush. As the demand for digital content continues to grow, AI will play a crucial role in scaling creation for both professionals and consumers.

Thibault shares his perspective: “Today, with the explosion of more channels, more content, more consumption, more digitalization, there’s an evergrowing demand for content. We play a role in helping more professional users create content at scale, given what we’ve learned in the past years, as we’ve helped consumers to create content. There are some exciting things coming from Picsart in that space this year.”

What’s Next

Picsart aims to empower users by providing AI-driven tools that make content creation more accessible and efficient. “What’s next for us is thinking about how we can accelerate productivity and automate a lot of the work that is not necessarily creative, but more repetitive when creating content, to really help people accelerate their productivity, while still maintaining a pulse on the creativity,” Thibault states.

AI is becoming the new norm in digital workflows, offering immense opportunities for innovation and creativity. Picsart will continue to be a leader of innovation in this area. AI is here to stay, and with companies like Picsart at the forefront, the future of creativity and productivity looks bright.

We’re excited to share that we’ve teamed up with Getty Images to launch a groundbreaking model that brings responsible, commercially-safe AI imagery to millions of creators, marketers, and small businesses. This custom model, built from scratch by Picsart’s AI lab, will be trained exclusively on Getty Images’ licensed creative content.

“Today’s marketers need to produce content around the clock, and they don’t want to leave Picsart to do it.

Color symbolism is the use of colors to convey meanings, emotions, and messages.

It uses color psychology— the effects of different colors on human behavior, emotions, and perceptions.  However, it also takes into account cultural meanings and individual contexts.

In short, by understanding color meanings, you can make people feel and think differently.

In marketing, for example, you might use colors to create specific associations with your brand. Or as a designer, you could use color symbolism to convey cultural sensitivity and communicate messages more effectively.

In this guide, we explore color meanings and their influence on design. We’ll also show you how you can find the right colors for different settings.

Color psychology: The importance of choosing the right colors

The right colors create a connection between you and your audience, but the wrong colors can alienate them.

One famous study even showed that between 60-90% of an initial judgment of a product is based on color alone.

Meanwhile, another piece of research showed that 39% of people feel color is the most important visual aspect of a website.

Choosing the right brand colors is particularly important because they will play a huge part in the identity you create. Your audience will come to recognize and associate you with those colors… And with the feelings they get when they look at them!

Color meanings by category

Before taking a look at individual colors and their meanings, we dive into the main categories of color: warm, cool, and neutral. 

Warm colors

Warm colors have the longest wavelengths; this means when they enter the eye they are perceived as coming closer to you. The result is a feeling of warmth, energy, and movement.

This also means these colors are typically associated with passion, happiness, and creativity. 

Cool colors

Because cool colors have shorter wavelengths, they appear further away from the eye. This makes them feel less demanding and calmer. As a result, cool colors are often linked with trust and quiet positivity. 

Neutral colors

Neutral colors are neither warm nor cool; instead, they are created by mixing both tones. The result is that they provide a blank slate, and an air of sophistication, purity, and balance. 

Color meanings and their influence on designs

In this section, we explore what colors represent and how they can influence your designs. Check the table below to get a quick idea about common emotions and cultural connotations. 

A note on cultural variations in color symbolism 

The table above will already show you how much color meanings can vary across cultures. 

To take a look at an even clearer example: White represents the color of mourning in many cultures while black symbolizes death in others.

Different hues of the same color can also have different connotations in different cultures. For example, gold is associated with success in the United States, but yellow is linked to cowardice in some Eastern cultures. 

For this reason, it’s important to carefully check which colors you’re including in your international campaigns.  Colors that represent emotions in one place can mean something else entirely elsewhere. 

Applying color meanings to your designs

To find colors that have the desired effect on your audience, follow these steps… And don’t forget, Picsart has tools to support you no matter what stage you’re at in the design journey.  

  • Research the cultural and emotional connotations of each color to find those that suit your brand or project.
  • Find your perfect shade using the Picsart color picker. Pick a color and then play around until you find a shade that makes you feel something! 
  • Figure out the best color combinations. These will complement each other to create the same feeling or tone.  
  • Use Picsart’s color wheel to test different pairings. This allows you to make sure you’re creating a cohesive design without even thinking about it.
  • Take into account the specific context of your project. If you’re trying to find a logo or brand palette, for example,  be sure to define your brand’s personality first. This will help you understand how you want people to feel when they interact with you. 
  • You should also write down your color codes so you can use them consistently across projects.  You can save these in seconds with Picsart!

Using color meanings for better marketing & design

Refer to our guide next time you’re wondering what color represents hope or you’re trying to build trust with your audience.

There’s a color for every emotional connotation and, by properly understanding the cultural context, you can build more meaningful projects and brands!

Our range of color tools are designed to make this as easy and fun as possible. Go experiment with shades, and let us know what you create.

Ignite your business with tools for solopreneurs and marketers

AI Image Generator

Our AI Image Generator is definitely a Picsart community favorite – in fact, it’s used to generate more than 2 million images per day! With this innovative tool, users can create anything their imagination can dream up. Simply enter a word, phrase or prompt and apply a variety of artistic styles and filters, creating visually stunning and captivating visuals.

AI Writer

With our AI Writer tools, users can effortlessly generate engaging and original written content. Powered by advanced natural language processing algorithms, the AI Writer understands context, tone, and style, enabling it to generate personalized and compelling narratives, quotes, messages and even social media captions.

Users can access these tools in two ways: In the Picsart app or web, and within Quicktools by Picsart. The AI Writer within the Picsart platform is best used for short text like captions or catchy marketing phrases for your visuals. The AI Writer in Quicktools is much more robust, with tools that help you generate everything from website copy to blog posts, business name ideas and so much more.

AI Replace

Another community favorite, AI Replace is a game-changing tool that empowers users to seamlessly replace any part of an image with an AI-generated element. Effortlessly remove unwanted objects, change backgrounds, or enhance images with well, whatever you want! Whether it’s replacing a dull sky with a vibrant sunset, adding fantastical creatures to a landscape, or replacing your ex with a snake, the AI Replace feature opens up a world of possibilities for visual storytelling and artistic expression.

Remove Background

One of Picsart’s most popular tools, Remove BG is the absolute simplest and fastest way to remove the background of an image. In just one tap – users can isolate the subject of a photo, making it easier to create clean and professional-looking visuals. This tool is invaluable for both amateurs and professionals looking to quickly edit images for personal or business use without the hassle of manual editing. By automating background removal, Picsart makes it simpler for users to focus on creativity and design, enabling the production of captivating images for any project.

AI Enhance

Picsart’s AI Enhance tool is a remarkable feature that refines and enhances photos instantly. With just a click, users can effortlessly amplify the clarity, color, and sharpness of their images, making them look professionally edited. This tool is especially useful for individuals looking to quickly improve their photos without going through a steep learning curve associated with sophisticated photo editing software.

AI Avatar

Our AI Avatar feature revolutionizes the way users can express themselves digitally. With this tool, anyone can effortlessly create personalized and lifelike avatars that mirror their unique characteristics. The Avatars feature takes your original selfies and accurately captures facial features, expressions, and even style preferences. It then creates a series of stylized images that look just like you! We’re also constantly updating the styles — some of our favorites include professional headshots, holiday themed outfits, superheroes, 90’s and cyberpunk. Did we mention it’s also available for images of two people AND for our furry friends?

AI Background Generator

Picsart features two different background generation tools. AI Background Generator is a simple tool that allows the user to generate any background they can think of, and in any style simply with a text prompt. The second tool lives within the Remove BG tool. This tool is super unique and transforms the backgrounds of an existing image while keeping the subject of the photo. Users can choose from a wide range of AI-generated backgrounds, including landscapes, abstract patterns, or custom designs to perfectly complement the subject. Whether it’s adding a new environment to a portrait, creating a whimsical backdrop for a product photo, or simply giving images a fresh and professional look, this feature offers unparalleled flexibility and creativity in background manipulation.

AI Object Remove (for photos and videos)

Picsart’s AI Object Remove tool is an innovative feature designed to seamlessly remove unwanted objects from both photos and videos. This tool identifies and erases undesired elements with minimal input required from the user, making especially video editing much more accessible. This is a boon for content creators, professionals, or anyone looking to present cleaner and distraction-free photos and videos without delving into complex software. With this tool, Picsart has simplified the process, empowering users to focus on the creative narrative of their visual stories, while ensuring a polished, professional finish.

QR Code Generator

The QR Code Generator is a simple tool for businesses in the digital age. With just a few clicks, companies can create custom QR codes that seamlessly bridge the physical and digital worlds. This tool isn’t just about creating a functional QR code; it’s about crafting a visually appealing gateway to your online platforms or promotional materials. With the ability to incorporate brand colors, logos, and other design elements, the QR codes generated can maintain brand consistency while providing a modern, engaging user experience. Whether it’s for product information, online menus, or directing traffic to your website or social media, Picsart’s QR Code Generator is an indispensable tool for smart, effective business operations.

AI Style Transfer

The AI Style Transfer tool is an exceptional feature that permits users to merge the artistic style of one image with the content of another, creating unique and visually striking results. This tool accurately identifies and applies the stylistic elements of one image—such as color schemes and brush strokes—to any other image, delivering a seamless blend of artistry and originality. This tool is great for anyone looking to quickly and effortlessly transform ordinary photos into captivating artwork, devoid of the complexities typically associated with traditional editing. 

AI Logo Generator

Get ready to meet your brand’s new best friend. Whether you’re building a brand from scratch or giving an existing one a fresh look, creating a unique, professional-grade logo has never been easier or more accessible. The Picsart Logo Generator understands the essence of your brand and crafts logos that are as unique as your vision. With just a few clicks, you can generate a variety of logo options, tweak them to perfection, and have the visual representation of your brand ready to dazzle your audience. It’s not just a logo generator; it’s your personal logo designer that’s ready to work around the clock. Say goodbye to tedious back-and-forths and hello to instant, stunning logos that embody your brand’s spirit.

AI Text Styles

AI Text Styles merge the power of artificial intelligence with creative text styling, paving the way for eye-catching and professionally designed words! Whether you are looking to enhance your social media posts, marketing campaigns, or personal projects, this tool simplifies the process of transforming ordinary text into visually appealing graphics. With a variety of styles to choose from, it’s easy to align the text aesthetics with your brand’s identity or the theme of your project.

AI Expand

AI Expand is a groundbreaking feature that seamlessly extends the boundaries of your images, enabling you to add onto the sides with brand new content. Whether you need a wider canvas for design purposes or simply wish to extend the scenery of your photos, this tool effortlessly fills in the expanded areas with content that matches the existing imagery.

Admaker by Picsart

A standalone tool, Admaker empowers anyone looking to create social media ads with the tools to make amazing eye-catching ads. It does everything from generating unique backgrounds for your product shots to creating witty, silly and friendly ad copy. Unlike other ad creation tools, Admaker doesn’t stop at just creating images or descriptions – it brings everything together seamlessly.

Be the star of the group chat with tools for fun

AI Filters

The AI Filters feature revolutionizes the way users can enhance and transform their photos with just a few taps. With a wide range of intelligently designed filters, Picsart users can effortlessly elevate their images with unique styles and effects. AI Filters intelligently analyzes the image content and applies intricate adjustments to bring out the best in every photo. Turn yourself into a doll or video game character, or transform your travel photos into intricate paintings, and so much more!

AI GIF Generator

Definitely our most unhinged AI tool so far, AI GIF Generator takes any word, phrase or prompt and turns it into a moving gif! This tool is based on a text-to-video model open sourced by the Picsart AI Research team earlier this year. Troll the group chat or add movement to your marketing emails – this GIF generator serves every creator.

AI Sticker Generator

Stickers are an absolute Picsart staple, so it was only appropriate that we give it it’s own (well deserved) tool. With AI Sticker Generator, users can effortlessly create any digital sticker they desire. Similar to the Image Generator, simply enter a word or phrase, and see your sticker come to life! Once your sticker is generated, it can then be used as an element in further editing — or save it to your collection and use it when messaging friends on iOS with our iMessage plugin.

 

AI Video Filters

Step into a world where your videos become a canvas for boundless creativity with Picsart’s AI Video Filters. Now, everyone has the power to transform everyday videos into enchanting visual stories. Whether you’re looking to infuse a cartoon style, pastels or anything you can imagine into your footage, the AI Video Filters have got you covered for videos up to 10 seconds long.

From its debut in November 2022 to now, this tech has come a looooong way. Remember those early days? The kinda glitchy, weird-looking pics with features that AI couldn’t quite get right (like everyone’s hands, why were the hands so weird?). Now, it’s like BAM!

There are millions of apps to choose from when you open the Google Play Store — so we’re thrilled to share that our friends at Google have awarded Picsart the coveted title of “Editors’ Choice” for 2023!  

Editors’ Choice is one of the categories used by the Google Play store to highlight an app with its stamp of approval. It’s their way of saying “this app works great, we love it and believe in it!” It signifies Picsart’s commitment to providing a high quality and valuable user experience. 

We couldn’t have done this without our strong community engagement, so thank you! This is a huge moment for us, as it signifies Picsart’s best in class app, low crash rates, localized and accessible content. It also highlights our tools for a variety of audiences in many languages. We support Google’s specific best practices and features to make Picsart easy to use. Our team has also invested in the pre-install store experience with educational content that helps creators of all levels feel confident downloading the app.

Why does Google Play love Picsart?

  1. Get creative with your pics: easily turn your photos into fun collages or works of art.
  2. Mix different photos as layers for surreal ‘double exposure’ effect.
  3. Add your own touch to others’ editable images and stickers, then share your works with the community.

Picsart was first launched on the Google Play Store in November 2011, receiving over 35 million downloads our first year. We’ve worked to release new tools and functions quickly and frequently so our audience continues to feel engaged. Today we have over a billion downloads with 150 million monthly active users — about 60% of those on Android devices.  

This news comes after Apple named Picsart an “Editors’ Choice” app late last year. We’ve also recently launched various generative AI tools including AI Image Generator, AI Avatar,  AI Replace and more. And provide our creators accessibility to this exciting new technology at little or no cost. 

Thank you to Google for recognizing our dedication to the best user experience, and to our community for supporting us! Download Picsart for Android or iOS Now.

Generative AI has unleashed a new era for creativity. Whether it be images, text, music, or video, the space is advancing quickly. At Picsart, we view this as an exciting opportunity for creatives everywhere.

We’re embedding the best of these technologies into our platform to further our mission to empower the creator in everyone. Whether its using text to generate images, replacing the background or swapping in different parts of an image in seconds, or making avatars from selfies – we see every day how our AI-powered tools are making creativity more accessible to more people and helping our users express their creative vision better, faster and with more fun.

But what do creatives really think of generative AI?

We conducted research with more than 1000 creatives across the U.S. and found that those in creative fields are overwhelmingly embracing generative AI tools in their work, or will in the near future.

More than 1 in 3 (36%) of survey respondents say that they are already using generative AI tools for their work. And nearly 3 out of 4 agree that generative AI will be very important to how they do work in the future. More than 76% say that they are interested in using generative AI in their creative process. 

Additionally, the vast majority of creatives agree that generative AI speeds up the creative workflow, provides a useful source of inspiration and say that generative AI will be an addition to the creative process, rather than a replacement.

How are creatives using Generative AI?

For those who specifically create digital advertisements as part of their job, we’ve uncovered which types of generative AI tools they’re using to make them.

“One of the assumptions today is that creatives are afraid of generative AI, however our research reveals the opposite,” said Dr. Oli Mival, Global Head of Research and Insight at Picsart. “Creatives and marketers are largely embracing these technologies. Now that these tools are becoming more accessible, people are seeing how generative AI can serve as a powerful creative partner. It’s about increasing efficiency and empowerment versus replacement.”

We’ve all been there, starting with a blank canvas, unsure where to even begin or what to create. If only there were a tool to easily bring your idea to life in seconds. Today, we’re excited to unveil the Picsart AI Image Generator, a new feature in the Picsart mobile app that allows creators to make images from a word, phrase or sentence – in seconds. Because it’s embedded into the Picsart Editor experience, after you’ve made your own AI image you can then continue editing, choosing from thousands of stickers, tools, filters, fonts, and more. 

Why is generative AI important?

You may have seen the term “generative AI” pop up in the news in recent weeks. It means using the help of AI to create, or generate, something completely new. Whether it be images, text, music, or video, the generative AI space is advancing quickly. We view this as an exciting opportunity for our creator community. There’s a ton of potential for AI-powered tools to open creativity to many more audiences as well as increase productivity in the creative workflow. 

Imagine as a business owner you need the perfect image for an ad, but don’t have funds or time to host a custom photoshoot. Maybe you just don’t want to use stock photography for your designs. That’s where generative AI – and practically, our AI Image Generator – comes in handy. We believe that this new feature will help increase your productivity and open more possibilities for creativity.  

How to use Picsart’s AI Image Generator

It’s summer already? We’re back with some new and very exciting updates from the world of Picsart following our last update. So buckle up as we dive into all of the things you might have missed this past quarter. 

Celebrating Pride 2022

picsart brand pride 2022 campaign

For Pride 2022, we transformed the Picsart platform into a space for the LGBTQ+ community to find power in creative expression and exploration. Anyone, no matter their location, was encouraged to come together to celebrate Pride, explore their identity, and support with allyship and inspiring edits showing how they’re #ProudbyDesign

To kick it off, we hosted a photoshoot with four LGBTQ+ creators and photographer Haley Varacallo, collaborating to capture photos that truly represented themselves and their communities. We also tapped the global Picsart Masters community to help Mama Duke, a queer hip-hop artist and entrepreneur, design their next album cover

To reiterate the powerful words of Mama Duke, “Pride in 2022 means power. It means anything you want it to mean. It’s a new world. Out is in.” And, Pride is year-round. 

Introducing Quicktools

Whether you want to convert files and PDFs, resize and compress images, crop and trim videos, generate fun fonts, create color palettes, and more – we’ve got you covered.

If you were on a deserted island, which Picsart tool would you bring with you? We reached out to three Picsart Masters to find out which tool or filter they wouldn’t leave home without. 

  • “The Curves tool. It’s like a filter and very useful to make an edit look aesthetic. I use it often because it turns simple images into amazing edits.” – Simon, Picsart Master, Austria
  • “The Sticker tool. I’d use it to make stickers of items found on my island. I’d create a tree sticker and make copies of it to build a housing structure or fishing boat.” – Marina, Picsart Master, USA
  • “The Negative filter. I begin with it every time. It’s the secret to capturing the mindset. From there all the tools take on a completely new aspect, and imagination is unleashed.” – Cam, Picsart Master, Canada
