Erin Sparler’s Blog

Welcome to my newest addition to my web site, Erin Sparler’s blog.

I know its strange, why in heavens would I want to contribute to this weird craze of putting your entire life on-line? My friend C asked me if I felt the need to “self express”. No not really. Am I self centered? Am I an exhibitionist? Do I think my thoughts are so very special that the whole world will sit up and take notice of my thoughts? No, not really. In fact I don’t really expect anyone but my closest friends and the occasional curious student to read this blog.

So why am I doing this? Well one to save paper. I have lots of thoughts throughout the day, and some days they just will not go away until I write them down. (I have WAY too many journals filled with random thoughts and sketches lining the walls of my art room. ) So this is a way to save paper, while emptying my head of these bothersome thoughts. And two I also plan to use this blog to illustrate so of the points I cover in classes and provide an example for students on creating art and living as an artist every day.
