Pres Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Hi folks, Glazenerd posted a question in the question pool asking: What movie best describes your adventures in clay: and why? This one I will have to think about for a while, off the top of my head it is like the Lord of the Rings trilogy, constant chaos, questing after an elusive end, where in the end you seem to end up where you started. 'Mmmmm? Guess I have to think about this a little more. best, Pres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Does Norway's Slow TV count? If not then I would like to believe its "Fast and Furious" but then its most likely "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest". This is so confusing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glazenerd Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Terri" there are two classic scenes in Blazing Saddles: if you are thinking of either>>>. I'm telling!!! When I first started in clay: "Field of Dreams".... I was full of hope and possibilities. After a few years it was: Forest Gump... seems like I kept fumbling through until I found success. The last two years: " A Beautiful Mind".. I wake up in the wee hours with clay talking to me..... someone book me on Dr. Phil please! Nerd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEP Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Thelma and Louise. I'm Thelma, my wheel is Louise, and my studio is the car. We took a wild trip past a point of no return, so we just kept going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrim8 Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 I just signed up for an expensive ceramics course. In light of this, I will most likely be enjoying a legume based cuisine for some time and perhaps in the same rarified atmosphere as depicted in the fine dining scene of the film, Blazing Saddles.The course is to be taught at a small western community reminiscent of the charming village seen in the movie. As a bonus, this pure & natural form of nourishment that I shall be living on enhances my creative impulses, helping me to produce pots that exhibit a sensation of warmth in design emanating from the base and enveloping my creations ever upwards.

Pres Posted May 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Thank you Terrim8, Hmmmm drooling is not included in a vocabulary of legume base cuisine for me. . . . What are you firing your kiln with? best, Pres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcia Selsor Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Reds because the duration of my life in clay is going on epoch. Many historical changes throughout the 50+ years but continue forward. Marcia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Fireborn Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Snatch Because I feel like I am in a movie with so many story lines that will hopefully all come together in a masterful ending eventually. AKA: I have to much stuff going on at once. Working on that now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yappystudent Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Soylent Green, The Road Warrior, and Sleeper (woody allen). Also a bit of the Little Mermaid, just for variations of color and it always makes me think of the "greatest phone message of all time" which I will link here if you want to hear it and the story about it: Warning: https://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/203/recordings-for-someone?act=1#playThis has nothing to do with art and has some friendly cursing, it's also a great radio show if you don't know that already and you should listen regularly.

Chris Campbell Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Mine would have to be "This is Spinal Tap" .... always searching for the entrance to the stage and always set on 11. .... later ... how strange that my reference to a cult classic should stop this thread!! C'mon, every artist is set to eleven! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
