The Untimeliness of Inspiration and Artistic Evolutions

I filmed this months ago and so much has already changed. Thoughts about art and inspiration, motivation and how work changes and evolves as an artist.
You can see my latest work on instagram @loriphillipsceramics.
Some of my favorite ceramics tools! (affiliate link that helps support what I do)

Thank you, that was exceptional watching you work. I've not touched clay in more than 40 years but this popped up in my feed and now I'm really inspired.

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Thank you so much!! That’s a long break from clay! It misses you! 😄

[@sueheale8029]

Absolutely stunning. It's always such a special treat when you upload a video, thank you.

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Thank you! ☺️

[@dommino22]

Randomly came across this - sooo creative! Also your description of your inspiration molecules and how that all works was just a concise "tell me you have adhd without telling me" summary :D
My brain also works this way.

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Thanks!! Glad you enjoyed 😁

[@skullingtonfly]

Gosh that’s so beautiful and organic. Just the sort of stuff I like 👍🏼

Great video Lori!! So natural and love your scriptures!!

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Thank you so much! ☺️

[@dryadtea]

Love this! I’ve also loved seeing your new work with the Terra Sig and the watercolor techniques.
I also giggled at the inspiration and molecules talk, cause laaaawdy that feels like a direct comment about my life right now. 😮😂

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Yay, thanks!! Glad you like the ‘molecules’ talk. It’s a Star Trek reference. 🤣

[@sylhayes8152]

I find your chat so funny. Lovely

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Thankya! 😄

[@esthermarygold-lowe4403]

I really love your bird

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Thanks! She loves to be “involved” 🤣 Luckily I only need to make work in my actual apartment when I want to film something, or I’d get nothing done, lol.

[@chrisjohnson-nq7sx]

That is so cool! And I just love the colors. So inspirational.

[@Bringidon]

only just 'discovered' you a couple of days ago.. really cool stuff.. and really watchable videos.. more please :)
ps. i've subscribed and hit all the buttons and bells and stuff :)

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Wooo! Thank you so much! And I’m working on it! 😅

[@jasonbgoldenbaydproductions]

So glad you’re back! Missed you! Absolutely love your work and enjoy listening to Lori life happenings. 😁 You’re therapy for many. ✌🏼😊

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Yay! Thanks dude! I should not be therapy for anyone, lol. 😅🤣
But I do like a good “cozy” video. 😄

[@litebrite8993]

No experience of learning is ever irrelevant. It always leads us to something that helps us level up our skills no matter what area of life :) Thx for sharing, came out so beautiful! Love the mushrooms 🥰

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Oh definitely not! I mostly just meant in terms of “irrelevant to what’s going on with me art-wise at the moment”. But you are absolutely correct. It’s why I keep all my little watercolor paintings, even when they go really poorly, lol! And thank you! ☺️

[@fruitlessbeast]

I’ve been enjoying your work for quite some time. I know I’m not alone.
Please continue to share when you feel so moved.

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Thank you so much! ❤️☺️

[@burrochapadogrl]

I love the bird lol

[@caitling1708]

What a beautiful, weird, interesting tile! And I love hearing you talk about your materials and process. Thanks for the video :)

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Thank you!! ☺️ So glad you enjoyed!

[@ThatPaintingLass]

Wow this is so cool!!! I love it!
Your art both in watercolor and in clay is amazing!!!

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Thank you! Really glad you liked it. 😁

[@Andy-Mesa]

Wonderful. Thank you.

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Thanks Andy!

[@noelakelly7235]

Awesome work. What is the red clay please? Love your bird.

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Thanks! I think what I showed here was a Minnesota Clay brand red clay. I forget the name. But I’ve been using New Mexico Clay’s Sandia Red since then and it’s very similar. 🙂

[@pippin8541]

The constant birdy interference is cracking me up! (Also, I've loved seeing your new work on the red clay body -- the painterly landscapes are just lovely.)

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Woohoo, thanks! And yeah, Beaker is a ham. 🤣

[@christygoyer2367]

It came out so beautiful Lori!

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Thank you!! ☺️

[@fami6263]

😍😍

[@Luttibelle]

Beautiful work! What is your bird’s name? 🩷

[@loriphillipsceramics]

Thankya! Her name is Beaker 😁

[@sannimarttinen8720]
