Why Should Art Enthusiasts Get Involved In Blogging?

By Katie Onson


Art, as many will be able to tell you, is the type of field that encompasses a number of mediums. Amongst them is writing, which can be as powerful as those involved in it would like. Of course, the same be said about blogging, even though many others utilize it for the purpose of releasing their thoughts in an almost therapeutic way. However, you may ask the question: what are the benefits of blogging for those who consider themselves art students?

Before anything else, it's important to keep in mind that blogging has a number of different forms it can take up. Blogs exist for a number of subjects, ranging from social media to food, which goes to show that there isn't a topic that blogging doesn't cover. What this means is that, regardless of your interests, you can get involved in this. Of course, it may not be enough to simply write about the material you like in order to bring readers to you.

Awareness is another crucial component that, in my view, should be taken into account. For instance, I view Tumblr as a popular entity and one of the reasons for this is because of how it's easy to reach the microblogging site's overall audience. This can be done through the incorporation of hashtags - this actually isn't much different than Twitter - as long as they are relevant to the content you are posting. Without these, your posts may not be read nearly as much, regardless of how engaging your content might be.

Blogging, if nothing else, can serve as one of the best journals for personal thoughts to be put down into words. It could be something as simple as recounting a key event from that day, utilizing one's ability to write about it and use descriptions which can have readers sink their teeth into them. Just because blogging can reach many people doesn't necessarily mean that it has to do. It could be meant more so for personal reasons, which is just fine.

As you can see, blogging is a great tool for those who consider themselves writers or just artists in general. It's not like you have to be a total wordsmith or grammatical expert in order to get involved in this, either. All you need is the right platform, for your thoughts to be conveyed, in addition to the thoughts you'd like to put down into words. Once you have these, as far as blogging is concerned, you will be good to go.
