Blogging & Its Benefits For Art Students

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?

Blogging is collective, to say the least, and you can see this as you scour the Internet. Just about every subject in the world has a litany of blogs to take into consideration, each of them able to bring different viewpoints to the forefront. Whether your interests lie in cooking, finance, or what have you, blogging has something for you to touch upon. Of course, there is more to be had with blogging than simple covering of the material you like.

I believe it's important to touch upon awareness as well. More specifically, you want to be able to invest in websites which have different levels of reach, which is one of the reasons why I believe Tumblr to be such a popular entity. This microblogging social network of sort is one that has a wide audience to consider and it is one that can be reached through the utilization of hashtags. Much like Twitter, these particular hashtags are ones which are able to make posts on Tumblr easier to search.

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.

One of the best things about blog writing, in my view, is that you do not necessarily have to specialize in writing to become proficient at it. Even if you do not have the best punctuation or grammatical skills, you can still thrive in this particular endeavor. It's just a matter of being able to tell the best stories in addition to well-researched information. If these are aspects you can cover, then there might be value in blog writing for you yet.
