Answer:Photographs, drawings, and paintings are sources of artistic inspiration. Another one is from personal experiences an artist would have and they can create a work of art by telling a story through it. The third one is through observing people or places. Next is through the use of imagination and the last is from internal enlightenment.

These main 5 inspirations can be considered and explained in the following way:
* Ordinary experience: related to spontaneity, it involves imagination and feelings.
* Observation: observe the environment, what is around us. IT might be natural or constructed environment.
*Imagination: source of inspiration- related to feelings and emotions- Expression
* Quest for order: deliberate designs, patterns- order found in the works- It might be narrative, figurative or abstract.

-- Photography can be considered an expression of art not a source of inspiration. It is generally the outcome.
