Feeling Guilty About Not Blogging

I've been feeling guilty about not blogging so much lately. About not having new inspiring photos to share...feeling guilty about blogging in bursts rather than being consistent like I feel I should. I look at some folks blogs like Alisa Burke who I admire, and she's always got some cute project idea or beautiful recipe to share. Her photos look like magazine ads. I don't know how she, and many others like her do it.

I know that the more time I spend online updating my website, store and blog the better I will do in the long run but it's so hard. All I wanta do is make art. Sitting alone with my music, painty fingers, instead of the click of the keyboard.

I actually saw that the cherries I bought the other day have a Facebook and Twitter account. WHAT!? I really wonder what our life is going to be like 10 years from now. Maybe I should feel guilty about not keeping up with the rest of the world. Maybe every moment should be tweeted, documented. Maybe that's just how things are now. Maybe I am getting old. ha

the more time you spend making beautiful art...the more beautiful art you will be able to share on those less inspired days!
Never feel guilty for wanting to be creative!

Don't feel guilty. We all love you as you inspired us. I know you still have so much more to share to us, your creativity..

I, too, find it hard to feed my creative soul and yet be practical about photographing and uploading it to my blog. So often, the best things I do go uncharted.

There are several professional artists that come to mind who don't blog regularly -- Misty Mawn and Carla Sonnheim are two.

I understand. I only started blogging recently, and already I feel the guilt when I let a few days go by without a post. I want to share my thoughts and some journal pages, and I desire that community. But sometimes it feels like work. I hear you, 100%.

Don't feel guilty Sarah! We all go through that. The best kind of blog is one that is not forced. Stay true to yourself.

Your blog and your artwork are beautiful! Don't feel guilty about the amount of time you spend blogging... I always thought it was supposed to be fun, like an on-line journal but with no pressure!
Cheers!
