Art Problems in Hyperallergic: Am I Too Old?

In art as in life, age is just a number. (edit Shari Flores/Hyperallergic)

Over at Hyperallergic I take on the questions of agism, sexism, and class for artists in my latest Art Problems column, Am I too Old?

As the title promises I address questions like, are you too old to make it? Do you need hipper connections? Do you need wealth to connect to wealth? And of course, on the wealth question, do you even care about such things?

The TLDR (too long didn't read) of it, goes something like this:

You're never too old.

The end.

But you knew that. The question is how to deal with agism in the art world, which is a real issue regardless of how old you feel.

In this article I share practical advice, mindset strategies, and a real life anecdotes relating to how I ended up surrounded by models in the home of a wealthy of diamond dealer.

Have a read, and let me know what you think by tagging me on Instagram.
