Creatively Thinking With Carolyn B
Join Carolyn B 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 has been launched, take a peak!
If you know of anyone who would like to have an interview on their creative practice send me an email at: creativelythinking.blog@gmail.com. This is the best compliment you can give us, and keeps the creative discussion moving and growing. Changing and influencing others to share and propel inspiration forward.

Anne MaClear: Episode #20 Shape Shifter
Exploring Art for 50+ years has proven to Anne MaClear that painting will always have it's challenges, and new ways of seeing. MaClear looks to find unexplored avenues to go down that provide new opportunities. Having the educational framework in her bones of numerous classes ranging from pastels, oil stick, embroidery, encaustic, wax, oil, and textile to name a few.
From her admiration of fellow Artists Mark Rothko and Robert Motherwell - two pioneers from the Modernist art movement; more specifically Pop, and Abstract Expressionism. MaClear punctuates her practice with flourishes from these two Artists. So subtly and pervasively, that they have an uncanny resemblance, but one that is not inherently obvious. This is a skill Anne has developed over decades in her creative practice.
Join me as we discuss the mediums, the message; what being Canadian addsto her practice, and what a little bit of chaos brings to artwork. How titles are chosen; and how often people assume Abstract Art is easier, when in fact it is quite the opposite. Anne shares how and why she is intrigued to take on this style.
