Creatively Thinking With Carolyn Botelho
Join Carolyn Botelho as she goes beneath the surface with local Creative Professionals on their practice, inspiration, and perspectives. Carolyn pulls you underneath the fabric of their creativity, where we discover how their genius of communicating in the Arts transforms, and translates into spectacular reality. What does their medium say about them?
What do they think of originality? Authenticity? In what moment of their creativity does their true passion sit? Is it in the imagination stage? Conceptualization? Or the Gallery or Stage? What are their feelings on Abstraction? Realism? Where are they seeing their career taking them in the next ten years? Do they have any political or social agendas with their Art?
Currently we are working on the Second Season where we go further into how Creative Professionals are incorporating their practice into mainstream society. How is their understanding of and practice pushing boundaries and developing their skills? How does the business side of being an Artist change being an Artist?Second season will be released soon!

Hugh Gardiner Episode #15: Jazz Hands Jive His Creativity
Hugh Gardner joins our show from a unique vantage point. Perched on top of the musical peak of being a Saxaphone player, a Visual Artist, and being involved with the theatre scene in Eastern Ontario. This gives him a rhythmic, visual, and dramatic advantage.
Join me as we take a deep dive in understanding what got him to this very point in his career creatively. Was it the love of music that put him in this direction? Was it working with his hands? Or expressing himself impromptu on stage that was the key to moving him in this direction?
Gardiner shares his journey in this creative submersion. Does he come up for air? Or is he completely immersed in this artful avenue? Hugh gives us some anecdotes that are both endearing and captivating. Our discussion raises some interesting parables between the audio and visual worlds; how they merge and stand separate at the same. Where are the boundaries? Are there any? Who knows how to blur them effectively?
