The creative process of art-making is both messy and magical, frustrating and fluid. It can bring an artist‘s insecurities up to the surface, yet asks for complete and total trust. Join professional dance artist, writer, and fiber artist, Alicia Peterson Baskel, as she interviews a new and different artist each week. You will hear from artists and writers across genres about their journey through the creative process toward their masterpieces. These conversations will encourage YOU to make your art. To value your art and to value the work of others. To push boundaries and to be willing to step into the unknown and trust yourself. To trust your creative intuition. (Photo Credit: Jim Carmody)

In this episode, Alicia talks about that place in the middle or the process where things NEED to be allowed to be messy. She goes from her kid's school Art Show to her own experience making her thesis project in graduate school to watching Idina Menzel in the new musical Redwood last year and how ALL of these very different productions had to experience a messy middle and overcome it.
The Messy Middle is that space in the process when you may know where you are headed, but its not showing up yet in performance, on paper, or in your art work. This is not an end point but rather a test of your own devotion to your work. Take the challenge. Go through it rather than avoiding it.
Alicia also wants to invite you to join her for the second segment of Creative Rhythms; The Art of Pause, Play, & Epiphany which is all about how devotion/dedication supports or sabotages our creative process. If you are interested in learning more about this program, please visit:
