Love, Lisa: Artist Lisa Asano Shares a Love Letter in Pictures

Despite her millions of TikTok views, Lisa Asano is actually an introvert. No, really—one scroll through her account will have even the most outgoing of us asking ourselves if we, too, need some alone time to recharge every now and then. But she also holds a degree in computer science and is a master ceramicist (and, since we’re here, a Virgo).

Asano, who works across different mediums (from photography to ceramics and more), creates content that doesn’t just inspire her followers to engage with the natural world, but to explore it, too: Just one photo dump can take you from Kyoto to California and teach you how to spin the perfect breakfast bowl in seconds. It’s why, in honor of Valentine’s Day, we asked Lisa to talk to us about love: from what this time of year means to her, to how she is celebrating her number ones (those near and far), and the Mejuri pieces she’s reaching for. The result is a visual diary celebrating that happy feeling in all of its different forms.

Lisa wears the Pavé Diamond Slim Signet, Bold Herringbone Chain Bracelet, Pavé Diamond X Ring and more as she creates pottery for her number ones as a way to show her love.
