It sets me apart from the rest of the competition

There is evidence that having a master's degree will allow you to earn higher earnings in the future. So that means you would have better career advancement and better prospects. I do feel it sets me apart from the rest of the competition.

The support is beyond anything that is even imaginable

I can't emphasize enough how helpful being around people who do oil paintings and sculpting has been for me. Their advice is something that I would never even have thought of if I didn't do this Masters.

The support is beyond anything that is even imaginable and it's pushed my practice beyond what I even considered possible.
