April 2017 Bootcamp Gallery is now Live!

The second gallery from our 2017 Make Art That Sells: Assignment Bootcamp class is now live! You can view it here I really want you to see the magnificent work that the students (of all levels) have created. The gallery features over 450 pieces of original art inspired by the April class assignment… to design a mindmap for the editorial market. This was a very different, much more personal kind of assignment where the students used a journaling exercise and corresponding imagery from the mini-assignment to create a mindmap of their personal courage. There was so much fabulous work submitted in response to this brief, and we love the ongoing supportive energy in the Bootcamp community. What a generous, talented group of artists they are!
