Now you're over 30, could you be 'over the hill'?Annie Taylorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13203685956499990077noreply@blogger.comBlogger8125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3306328435488117723.post-4212650207953308242010-06-05T12:35:34.701-07:002010-06-05T12:35:34.701-07:00i couldnt believe you felt like that. i am going t...i couldnt believe you felt like that. i am going through the very same thing at the moment. i went on the dorset arts week and thought your work was brilliant. at least you are exhibiting in galleries. i cant even get into one at the moment. not to say that i havent in the past. <br />I am sure a lot of it is not what you know but who you know. <br />anyway i thought i would join your blog as i am also on blogspot, and its good to see what all the other struggling artists are saying. <br />im sure you will make it, and it seems if you have a definate style, people get to know you and recognise you for it. unfortunately i have a problem with that. and experiment.Moira Laddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09592022551527862432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3306328435488117723.post-22611810052612135142010-05-27T13:47:41.573-07:002010-05-27T13:47:41.573-07:00I enjoyed reading this article, since I am an emer...I enjoyed reading this article, since I am an emerging artist over 30 and can relate to the frustrations as you do.

Women have always intrigued me too. I think we have something special to say...So, I'll join too!Spring https://www.blogger.com/profile/09660670033157816081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3306328435488117723.post-8037231967543739962010-05-14T03:43:53.072-07:002010-05-14T03:43:53.072-07:00I did read the blog.

Right not I have been having the same problem getting into shows that I used to be able to get into--even though my work is better than ever.<br /><br />I feel it is because they--the jurors--have seen it already so for them it is not "new". I was just at a show where they were giving awards. Needless to say I didn't get one--and didn't even expect one. But when one of the jurors walked down the aisle it was almost comical how he turned his head away from my work as though it pained him to look at it.<br /><br />One of the award winners was across from me. While initially his work looked fresh--at the end of the four day show I had concluded that there was something missing from it--some lack of soul or color knowledge--so that the body of work wasn't there.<br /><br />In the end, I feel that we come out as the winners. It is our experience with life that allows us to keep going when our work may be out of favor knowing that sometime the market will again decide that our look is fresh.<br /><br />OK--I wrote a lot--posted it as a comment on your blog to keep the conversation moving. Oh well, I need more coffee for that.Ann Brauerhttp://annbrauer.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3306328435488117723.post-19320435155108370252010-05-13T16:36:59.971-07:002010-05-13T16:36:59.971-07:00I'll join you lovely - and I like Anthony'...I'll join you lovely - and I like Anthony's suggestion!
