I also admit it is time-consuming to get a blog set up to give it a professional look and to learn how to post, administer and publicize the thing. Still, I believe that outside of personally meeting a collector, there is no better way for an artist to convey something about themeselves that can motivate collectors and galleries to buy their work. The Internet is becoming what is known as a disruptive force in the world of marketing. It's power to reach and influence people is growing while other traditional means of marketing, save word-of-mouth, are declining.
