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)

Transforming Grief into Creative Expression
Friday Aug 30, 2024
Friday Aug 30, 2024
I recorded this episode on Tuesday, August 27th - the 6th anniversary of my mother's passing. In this solo episode, I speak about how I'm no longer trying to avoid feeling my grief and instead am finding ways to process this emotion into expression...into Art. What is your medium for expressing your emotions artistically? If you don't know, maybe now is the time to consider honoring your creativity.

Art and Aliveness w/ Intuitive Artist and Electrical Engineer Kelly Heaton
Tuesday Apr 25, 2023
Tuesday Apr 25, 2023
Kelly Heaton is a cross-disciplinary artist, engineer, and visionary who works with electricity. She is fascinated by what makes things alive and conscious. Her art is hard to categorize because it vibrates conceptually and often literally, too. Heaton uses oscillating electronics to explore the building blocks of machine intelligence and to create circuits with life-like behaviors. Her artistic circuits are conduits for her core message that we are electrical beings connected in a universal system. Humans can be electrifying, illuminating, and magnetic, or we can abuse our power and short-circuit. Heaton wants to blow your mind in a positive way—as a friendly invitation to mutual growth and heartfelt expansion.
In our conversation, Kelly shares with us the struggles that come with creating a new and unknown artistic genre. She shares her love for nature, electricity, and the aliveness of circuits, inspiring us to see that we too are circuits and part of a greater circuit. This episode will expand your understanding of your relationship with electricity and consciousness, as she helps us remember that "art is the life"
