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!

Episode #13 Yaw Tony: You're A Fine Quality
Join me as we take a deep dive with an Artist who is said to be breaking all the rules of colour. Yaw Tony an Architect, Artist, and Graphic Designer that also has an extensive fashion line. What are his boundaries with colour? Does he have any? What inspires these rich and wild designs of intricate and bizarre stories? They are flooded with intensity of pure hues and symbolism.
Yaw Tony has a unique perspective with these three disciplines he weaves his own interpretation of contemporary values with his cultural heritage that shines brighter and bigger. We go beneath the surface to uncover where Yaw's inspiration really lies.
Where do his artworks take us? Is it the stories he wants us to understand, or is it the meaning behind his colour choices? What is his story-telling really communicating to us? Or are they interpretations of ancient allegories or legends? Can we use them today to change our lives?
