Introduction to Pottery
00:00:01
Speaker
If you love pottery and want to take your skills to the next level, you're in the right place. Find your own pottery style right here on Shaping Your Pottery with Nick Torres. Let's get started.
Embrace Your Weirdness
00:00:14
Speaker
What is up, Shaping Nation? This is Nick Torres here. And on this episode of Shaping Your Pottery, I'm going to be talking about why you need to embrace your weird in order to really find your unique voice, in order to find pottery that you truly enjoy making.
Weirdness and Personality
00:00:32
Speaker
You know, I was watching a short video on about, with Alex Hormozin, he was like talking about how in high school we would all go through these different groups of like social groups, I guess you say. And if you're weird, then you probably bounce around a lot looking, trying to discover your own personality, trying to discover your own little click. And as he said, if you're weird,
00:00:59
Speaker
Started thinking about how I used to do that. I used to in high school I would bounce around constantly because I was either bored or I just I guess in his terms I was looking for my own little

click. I was bouncing around a lot
00:01:12
Speaker
But that's when it also sparked me an idea where if you can embrace your weird with your pottery, then your pottery is going to look that much better. It's going to have that much more personality into it. And that's what finding your voice is really pretty much all about. It's about putting your own personality into your pottery so that you're making pottery that you truly enjoy rather than making pottery that is for somebody else or just trying to make a quick buck.
Incorporating Personal Interests
00:01:40
Speaker
That's why it's important to embrace your weird. How exactly do you embrace your weird? What are some things that you can do to embrace your weird or add your own personality into it? Well, the first thing is you have to know what you what you would like, right? You have to know what the things that you do. Maybe you're a nerd like me and you like to play Dungeons and Dragons and you like to role play all that stuff.
00:02:06
Speaker
Great. How can you add that into your pottery? What are some things that you can do to add that into your pottery?

Speaker
And that is really pretty much it. That's pretty much how you are going to find out your weird, your your own little flow of things that you do. Maybe when you're home alone, you know, you're comfortable and there's nobody around.
00:02:27
Speaker
You like to dance around the house. You like to go do weird things. You like to maybe mess with your dogs or play with your dogs in a weird way. How can you add that into your own pottery? Maybe it's just the joy that you see while you are being weird. Like, you know, the things that you see and you notice it while you're being weird and you add that into your pottery. Like, this is what I do. And this is what I see when I'm being weird. And I wanted to put it into my own pottery. So I ask you again, how can you
00:02:57
Speaker
add the weird things and the weird little things that you do throughout the day into your pottery and the things that you enjoy into your pottery. Because if you can add your weird into your pottery, when you're adding a personality into your pottery, when you add a personality into your pottery, that's when your voice really starts to show up.
