I’m super grateful for all the feedback, encouragement and helpful resources I received over the duration of this Program.
I remember when two months ago I wasn’t sure whether I should take this course but now I’m so glad I did!

I really wanted to find a community of people and I really wanted to have that professional feedback. So when I heard that Art Heroes works with industry professionals, I was totally on board with that.
Looking at the screenshots of the initial blockout of my character versus right after the group sessions, there’s a marked difference between where I started and where I ended up.
