Many of you probably already know Urban Collective online art magazine, their theme issues based on submissions made by contributing designers and it is a good showcase for new talents. This month’s theme is TRANSPARENCY:

Deadline: September 15
So what do you waiting for? Grip your wacoms and start drawing your masterpiece to decorate their front cover!
