April, 2018 Shift Art Photoshop Challenge is Closed!
The theme: The African Savanna!
This month the theme is the savanna and all the majestic animals that live there. The challenge this month will involve creating artwork that celebrates this spectacular place on Earth. In the images available this month you’ll find a variety of images featuring many of the animals you’ll find in the savanna, as well as a few landscape images. I look forward to seeing what you create!
