Welcome to Get your Artist Jet pack On !
A place to learn and grow your art practise with other Ageless artists like yourself
As I encounter artists (particularly those artists that fit into my loose ageless artist criteria (50 years and up) who are saying or feeling:
I’m stuck in a rut
I feel unable to create /artist block
I am exhausted and perplexed by all of the marketing expectations
I’m numb and shutdown creatively
I’m feeling isolated.
I am experiencing a feeling of spinning my wheels
I am trying everything yet without success
Grrrr what’s the point? No one buys my work anyway
I am feeling overwhelmed with websites/ social profiles
I am de -energized .
I’m interested in meeting other artists who can identify with challenges related to technology, the way art is marketed currently , and making/selling my art
Perhaps one or more of these statements or words resonates for you . If so I’m glad you are here!
I also know there is such a treasure trove of knowledge and expertise in our midst so let’s capitalize on this too . Some of you may want to make more art. many of you are looking for change in your practise. Others may want to take your art to another place -selling/exhibiting etc. I’m thinking you are also seeking community with other artists who are in a similar place-not necessarily geographically but certainly age wise.
There are lots of newsletters and sites about marketing and art business -but I thought it was important to create this place especially for artists of our vintage .
A special and unique community .
For now and foreseeable future my monthly Jet Pack newsletters will continue to be 100% free.
November 2024 news
After much consideration I am offering (again!) a paid subscription option for those of you who wish to dive in deeper and join me in creating a smaller welcoming art community . . You will receive a week free to decide if the paid option is for you! :-) Also my already low subscription price will be 20% off for an annual subscription
I do not plan to offer marketing plans or magic formulas - but rather encouragement, tips and hopefully a few laughs and robust discussion about getting past the obstacles and moving forward with your art. There are Several potential paths we can take together..
Guided by your wants, wishes and lots of participation! These might include..
Live video sessions where we can discuss topics relevant to us and our growth
live art demos exclusive for this community
monthly workshops and a make together sessions -interviews with other (ageless) artists to glean useful knowledge !
discussions about marketing your art ,
breaking out of blocked periods
Something that will make this group unique and user friendly will be that it is a separate thread from Ageless Artist - so if interested you will need to subscribe to this group(either free or paid -club option) for emails and updates. You can feel free to unsubscribe at any time.
I will continue to offer Ageless Artist as a monthly newsletter and Jet Pack once monthly too
We will not spend a lot of time mucking about in reasons why we are stuck - it’s time to fasten our jet packs!
