10 Blog Post Ideas Every Artist Can Use Right Now

Are you staring at a blank screen, trying to figure out what to post on your blog? Even the most established artists sometimes struggle to come up with content ideas, especially when you’re juggling studio time, marketing, and everything in between.

To help you stay consistent (without the stress), here are 10 blog post ideas that are easy to write, fun to share, and perfect for connecting with your audience, whether you’re just starting or have an established practice.

1. Behind the Scenes of a New Piece

People love seeing the process behind the art. Show progress shots, share a short story about how the piece came to life, and reflect on any challenges or surprises along the way.  As a bonus, include a few studio photos to bring it to life. 

2. What Inspires You Right Now

Write about what’s sparking your creativity lately, whether it’s a certain color palette, a place, a book, or even a personal experience. These posts help followers feel more connected to your art practice. 

3. A Studio Tour

Take readers on a virtual tour of your creative space. Talk about your setup, your favorite tools, or how you’ve made the space your own.

4. A Collector Story

Do you have a favorite sale or a memorable collector experience? Share the story of how someone connected with your work and why it was meaningful to them and you.  These posts are great for building trust and encouraging new buyers. 

5. Frequently Asked Questions

Think about the questions you hear often such as “How long does it take to make a piece?” or “Do you take commissions?” Turn those into a helpful blog post that answers them all in one place.

6. Your Art Journey

Share how you got started as an artist, what kept you going, and how your work has evolved. It doesn’t have to be a complete autobiography. Avfew stories or turning points can resonate with people.

7. A Seasonal or Holiday-Themed Post

Link your artwork or process to the season or an upcoming holiday. Share seasonally-inspired pieces, talk about giving art as a gift, or highlight what you’re working on for the next season.

8. Tips for Displaying or Caring for Art

Collectors often want guidance on how to hang, frame, or care for original artwork. A quick tip post adds value and shows that you care about your art long after it leaves your hands.

9. A “What I’m Working On” Update

Even if it’s just a peek, a short update about what you’re creating right now helps your audience feel included in your journey and builds anticipation for new releases.

10. Artist Favorites: Tools, Materials, or Books

Create a roundup of your go-to materials, favorite brushes, or art books that have inspired you. These posts are super relatable and give readers a closer look at what shapes your practice.
