Artist Blogs (that deal more with process, less with monetization)?

[StephKunze]

I have an artist blog (using Wordpress) that I keep for fun to document my art practice and motivate me to finish what I start. I've been feeling a desire to track down some other artist blogs (that are also using Wordpress) to follow. I particularly want to follow artist blogs that are also more personal and casual in nature. I've done some Google searching and have struggled to find blogs like this. Most artist blogs I'm finding are just still websites. Others appear to be monetized and existing primarily to grow the artist's business through marketing and paid subscription.

Does anyone know of some artist blogs (particularly ones using Wordpress) where the artist simply goes into detail about their creative process and inspirations? And documents their journey through time on that? How popular the blog is irrelevant - I just want something I can read that feels more personal and casual.

You seem to be describing my blog: ayin.blog

I also have a friend, Gregg, who has a blog that features his process and thoughts (depending), but he uses Blogspot.

Not sure if mine fits your bill: https://bartsart.weebly.com/blog

Sorry, but I fail to see what is so difficult about using google with e.g. the keywords wordpress art journey, maybe adding blog.

I know it doesn't sound nice and duly apologize, but, pray, what is so difficult about it? I just can't understand it.

Artcyzar and Bartc, thank you so much for sharing! This is exactly what I was looking for and I am excited to read through these.

And txomsy, I'm feeling embarrassed to say this but I didn't think of using specific keywords. I was typing in art blog, artist blogs, artist journals, Wordpress art blog, that sort. That explains why I got what I got, lol. I wrote this post in a flash of frustration after not being able to find what I'd been looking for and just feeing general frustration about the internet. In hindsight I see it was lazy of me but I hoped maybe posting my question here would fast track my search in finding blogs to follow. Understood, though, I'll play around with keywords and I'm sure I'll find what I am looking for!
