  • Join me as I gather a community of artists over 40 to share our unique journeys in art. Whether you're a painter, sculptor, photographer, or any other creative, this is a space to discuss the joys and struggles of pursuing art later in life. Let's inspire each other, offer advice, and celebrate our creativity together. If you're passionate about art and have wisdom to share, this video is for you!
    So start making your video! Turn on your camera or phone and just begin! I suggest you use your phone and a quiet place to speak to us. Your voice and heart ❤️ deserve that 🙏
    Use 3, 5 or all of these 10 prompts below to guide you in your video - but most important be yourself and tell YOUR story!!! We all want to hear you!

    Great idea. It's important to show younger artists that the journey lasts a lifetime, and this will give community to the 40+ artists. I'm 39, started in traditional, changed to digital for work, and am returning to traditional media for personal work. Never a dull moment! Being an artist is a life of reinvention.

      Thank you so much for your comments! I love "Being an artist is a life of reinvention. " That in itself is a story. Hearing your story has so much gold nuggets and value to Young and older artist- here on UA-cam.

    I JUST started on UA-cam and I just posted about starting painting at 50! I'm 54 and I totally believe we have stories to share. I'm so glad I found you! 🥰Your story is so great! I love that you started with comics and cartoons (my first job as a designer was designing the packaging for Ninja Turtle Toys - I love that world!)
