Artists over 50: Amazing stories


Dear Artists,

I was so blown away by the extraordinary voices on this Instagram post!

"Over 60 - and I’m just born as an artist. and I couldn't have created what I'm creating today when I was younger."

@monicafossati.art

"I’m 56, and I genuinely believe my best work is still ahead of me. Art doesn’t ask how old you are."

@kasialiszka.art

"I am 73 years old. My art is as important as the air I breathe."

@kenblakemore_abstact_artwork

"I am going to be 64 this year and I have been an artist as long as I remember."

Many of you have told me that you feel "behind" and that you'll never catch up in terms of skills.

I have mentored artists in their 20's who have all the skills but who tell me:

"I have nothing to make art about."

The majority of artists in Art Club are over 40. Many are coming back to art after after raising kids and working for decades in other fields.

I've recently started hands on workshops like our upcoming Color Club which includes discussions and live art alongs where you'll get feedback in real time.

Art Club rates are going up next time!

Enrollment ends tomorrow, apply now.

Hit reply if you questions, and you can get a video reply from me.

Dear Reader, Art Club doesn't open until Sept 6, but I noticed you were looking for support with galleries. I wanted to give you early access to this recording of the Secrets to Art Galleries workshop we did a ways back. (you get access to all workshops in Art Club) And if you have questions about connecting to galleries, your portfolio, or your timeline, just reply. I read every email and I'm happy to point you in the right direction. xoxo Prof Lieu P.S. And if you're not sure whether it's...

Dear Reader, Growing up in the 80's, I had a World Book Encyclopedia, which was practically my entire world when it came to looking things up. I still have a vivid memory of seeing this Marisol piece which was in the S volume, under sculpture. I remember thinking how creepy it was that the mom figure had no eyes. If I look up Marisol today, it's this avalanche of information. Which is amazing because of the accessibility, but lately I've been feeling like I don't need more information? I...
