Time to begin

To blog or not to blog? This is probably not the most original question, but frankly its been on my mind. Part of me is excited to join the blogging community. After all I enjoy perusing other people's blogs. These days, if you want to be an artist, you just about have to blog. But it does seem like an awful lot of work and I'd really rather spend my time making art than monkeying around with all this computer stuff. But here I am, diving in. I hope to make this a place where I can showcase my work, share techniques, and meet other artists. Right now I have a day job, which makes it hard to prioritize my spare time, but I see my computer as an essential element in moving toward my professional artist future. So here goes!
