WHY I BLOG

Blogging for me is a form of art expression.  An extension of my art.  I’ve never had a gallery opening or participated in a juried art exhibit (although some day I will), but through my blog I display my art, techniques and projects in my own personal gallery.  I invite others to stop by and see what I've created.

Through blogging I've learned so much and as I look to the next phase of my life, I’ll spend more time blogging and arting around!  Here’s why I love blogging:

• creating something, anything and sharing it through my blog
• watching others reaction to posts and connecting with comments
• seeing visitors from all over the world
• sharing crafting techniques and tools
• learning about writing, photography, editing, and video making
• developing a business
• expanding beyond the blog to other social media
• sharing studio design and organization ideas
• teaching
• writing tutorials
• believing that others have the artist in them and helping them experience it
• helping and encouraging others to try an art project or medium they might not have considered

Blogging has become a bit of an obsession and I am constantly on the lookout for ideas to share.  I see blogging becoming more and more important in my art life as I look for ways to share the fun of creating something with their own hands.  I hope to help others find the same sense of fun, experimentation and fulfillment in creating art.  See you at the next post.
