42: The Art of Reinvention with Jane Wilson

What happens when the art you're known for no longer brings you joy? In this episode, mixed media artist Jane Wilson shares her journey from fashion buying to creative commercial success, and how a door closing lead to her finding her true voice as a playful, joy-filled artist. Jane opens up about early experiences of imposter syndrome, the emotional fallout from a tough gallery break-up, and how lockdown gave her space to rediscover creativity on her own terms. We talk about the art of starting over - more than once - and why success looks different at different stages of life and career. Jane also reflects on professional ambition, the importance of artist identity, and how she's channelling her experience into launching her first online workshop.  We talk about: Jane's shift from fashion buyer to professional artist Why gallery representation isn't always the dream Imposter syndrome and reclaiming the title of 'artist' Playing your way into a more joyful practice The power of beginner's mind Success, validation, and new directions after 50 Creative professionalism (and why every artist needs a delivery note!)
