Having initially cringed at the thought of having a blog or becoming a 'blogger' I have recently had my eyes opened for long enough to realise some of the benefits this could have. Currently studying on the MA in Multi-Disciplinary Printmaking at UWE (University of the West of England) I have met other bloggers and listened to their reasons for having a blog. A lecture I recently attended by P.Laidler (Research Associate at UWE) outlined the personal benefits of keeping a blog and therefore was the nail in the coffin! So, here are my reasons for starting this blog...
A Personal Resource
A way of organising a variety of information in one place improving documentation and reflection of my practise.
Communication with Others
An accessible and professional method of introducing and presenting my practise to others. Sharing what I've been up to with peers and friends.
I plan to blog about...
- on-going work and experiments
- books I'm reading
- exhibitions/ places of inspiration visited
- workshops/ lectures attended
- other inspiring things such as other peoples blogs
