> >> THIS TIME ON "BROAD & HIGH" -- A PERUVIAN-BORN AUTHOR TALKS ABOUT HER APPROACH TO WRITING.

A WATERCOLORIST CELEBRATES THE BEAUTY OF HUMAN CONNECTION.

AND WE MAKE A QUICK BITE WITH A FOUNDING MEMBER OF AN ARTIST- OWNED GALLERY ON THE CUSP OF ITS 40th ANNIVERSARY.

THIS AND MORE RIGHT NOW ON "BROAD & HIGH. "

♪ ♪ > >> WELCOME TO "BROAD & HIGH. "

I'M YOUR HOST, KATE QUICKEL.

PERUVIAN-BORN AUTHOR ANI PALACIOS BEGAN HER CAREER IN ADVERTISING.

WHEN SHE MOVED TO THE UNITED STATES IN THE 1980s, ANI LEANED INTO HER EDUCATION IN JOURNALISM.

AS ONE OF THE OVER 50 MILLION SPANISH LANGUAGE SPEAKERS IN THE U. S. HERSELF, ANI CONSIDERS THIS HER MAIN AUDIENCE.

SHE RECENTLY TRAVELED TO GENOA, ITALY WITH A GROUP OF COLUMBUS ARTISTS.

THE EXPERIENCE PLAYED A HUGE ROLE IN HER LATEST WORK.

BUT AS SHE EXPLAINS, IT WAS A NATURAL FIT WITH HER TYPICAL WRITING PROCESS.

>> MY VERY FIRST BOOKS CAME FROM MORE ON THE JOURNALISTIC SIDE.

SOMETHING HAPPENED, AND WHAT IF, YOU KNOW, IF THIS PERSON LEAVE ON TO DO THIS OR THAT.

AND I JUST TAKE IT FROM THERE.

ALSO ABOUT IMMIGRATION, YOU KNOW.

YOU WORK --I FEEL LIKE IT'S A THERAPY, YOU WORK WHAT YOUR MIND IS CONCERNED BUT YOU DON'T KNOW AT THE MOMENT.

I WRITE MAINLY FOR SPANISH-SPEAKING READERS OR PEOPLE THAT WOULD LIKE TO READ IN SPANISH.

I DON'T UTILIZE VERY WHAT THEY CALL $5 WORDS.

I USE 50-CENT WORDS.

YOU KNOW, IT'S VERY EASY TO READ MY --WHAT I, WHAT I WRITE.

AND I WOULD LOVE IT IF PEOPLE WHO ARE LOOKING TO READ MORE IN SPANISH OR MAYBE UNDERSTAND SOME MORE ABOUT OUR CULTURE WOULD ALSO JUMP INTO IT.

WHEN I GET INVOLVED WITH ONE OF MY BOOKS, THEY'RE TYPICALLY NOVELS, THE CHARACTERS AND MYSELF SORT OF MINGLE A LOT.

I'M THINKING -- I'M THINKING MORE ABOUT THEM IN FICTION THAN I'M THINKING ABOUT REGULAR PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD.

SOMETIMES YOU'RE LIKE, YOU HAVE ALL THESE OTHER PEOPLE IN YOUR HEAD THAT ARE NON-EXISTENT BUT THEY'RE SOMEBODY TO YOU, RIGHT?

YOU PUT SO MANY --SO MANY HOURS INTO WRITING.

IT'S A LOT.

IT'S AN ENTIRE YEAR TYPICALLY FOR ONE BOOK.

THIS ONE WAS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER TIMES.

I WAS LOOKING FOR SOMETHING FOR VOLUNTEER.

AND I FOUND THIS, FIND A GRAVE, THAT YOU JUST SIMPLY GO TO THE CEMETERY AND LOOK UP WHAT GRAVES THEY'RE LOOKING FOR.

YOU TAKE A PICTURE AND PUT IT UP IN THEIR WEBSITES.

VERY EASY.

BUT THAT MADE ME THINK A LOT ABOUT GRIEF AND LOSING SOMEBODY AND THE PROCESS THAT WE GO THROUGH WHEN WE GO TO A CEMETERY BUT WE GO FOR OURSELVES, WE DON'T GO FOR THE DEAD PERSON.

IT'S A WAY OF CONSOLATION, I GUESS.

AND THERE'S SO MANY STORIES IN CEMETERIES.

♪ ♪ WELL, THE WHOLE CEMETERY THING WAS AMAZING.

SEEING THE STATUES IN STAGLIENO AND SEEING THE REASONS WHY IT WAS BUILT AND IT HAD LIKE THEIR RICHER PEOPLE, POOR PEOPLE.

PARTS OF THE CEMETERY.

I MEAN, WE DO THAT NOW TOO.

I GUESS THERE'S LIKE MORE THIS IS COSTING THIS MUCH AND THIS IS COSTING THIS MUCH.

BUT EVEN NOW WE DO THAT.

TO ME I THINK THE MOST INTERESTING THING WAS THE PEOPLE THAT WE TRAVELED WITH AND THE STORIES THAT WE HEARD FROM THEM, YOU KNOW.

EACH ONE IS --ONCE YOU GET THEM TO OPEN UP, YOU KNOW.

FIRST YOU HAVE TO BUILD THE TRUST OR GET THEM TO GET THE DEFENSES DOWN.

THEY OPEN UP AND THERE'S LIKE A COMPLETE STORY OR STORIES RIGHT THERE THAT YOU DIDN'T SEE.

A LOT OF THEM, THE THINGS THAT I'M LIKE, WHAT DID YOU DO?

THAT'S INTERESTING.

I'M WRITING IT DOWN.

I DO THAT A LOT, YOU KNOW.

SO IF YOU'RE FRIENDLY OR ENEMY, YOU MAY END UP IN MY --IN A PAGE.

I'VE ALWAYS LOVED TO TRAVEL.

MY KIDS LOVE TO TRAVEL.

IT'S THINGS THAT I THINK GO THROUGH GENERATIONS.

THE ONLY WAY THAT YOU CAN KNOW, YOU KNOW, HOW OTHER PEOPLE LIVE AND EXPERIENCE THEIR EXPERIENCES IS EITHER THROUGH READING A BOOK OR TRAVELING.

SO EVERY COUNTRY, EVERY PLACE REALLY, EVEN EVERY NEIGHBORHOOD HAS STORIES.

WE JUST NEED TO SIT DOWN AND OBSERVE.

>> TO LEARN MORE ABOUT ANI'S WORK FIND HER ON FACEBOOK AT ANI PALACIOS AUTORA.

ANTONIO GONZALEZ-GARCIA IS A VISUAL ARTIST WHO WAS BORN IN SPAIN, STUDIED IN FRANCE AND NOW CALLS COLUMBUS HOME.

HIS CURRENT WORK IS A STUDY IN THE IMPORTANCE OF BUILDING COMMUNITIES.

THE JOURNEY WITH FELLOW ARTISTS TO GENOA, ITALY VALIDATED AND EXPANDED HIS PERSPECTIVE ON MAKING CONNECTIONS.

>> I USE WATERCOLOR.

IT'S A MEDIUM THAT KEEPS YOU ON YOUR TOES LIKE MY DAUGHTER DOES, ACTUALLY.

IT'S SPONTANEOUS, BUT AT THE SAME TIME YOU NEED TO BE VERY MUCH STRATEGIC AND PAINT WITH SOME DEGREE OF BEING METICULOUS.

IT BRINGS ME JUMPING IN ONE SIDE TO ANOTHER.

AND YOU NEED TO DO THAT QUICKLY.

IN TERMS OF COLORS WATERCOLOR HAS BEEN HISTORICALLY KNOWN FOR BEING BRIGHT.

BUT I HAVE A BACKGROUND IN OIL PAINTING AND I LIKE TO PLAY WITH OPACITY AND I LIKE TO PLAY WITH SECTIONS THAT ARE NON-FINITO AND SECTIONS THAT ARE PRETTY MUCH REALISTIC.

OTHER SECTIONS THAT ARE A LITTLE BIT IMPRESSIONISTIC.

LIKE THAT THE FOCUS IS 100% THE PEOPLE ON WHAT THEY ARE DOING.

SOCIAL ORGANS FROM AN AESTHETICS PERSPECTIVE, IT'S JUST PAINTING GROUPS OF PEOPLE THAT ARE INTERACTING WHILE A SOCIAL GATHERING IS HAPPENING.

AND THERE IS FOOD, THERE IS SOMEBODY LAUGHING, ALL THIS KIND OF STUFF HAPPENING THERE.

SOCIAL ORGANS, I BELIEVE IT GREW UP LIKE SEED THAT YOU PLANT FOR EXPERIMENTING OR CREATING THINGS.

AND THEN IT BECAME ON WHAT IT IS TODAY.

I STARTED PAINTING THE PEOPLE THAT SURROUNDED ME.

THE GROUP OF FRIENDS THAT I SEE EVERY DAY, WE GATHER AND THEY ARE SO SIGNIFICANT IN A SOCIAL WAY.

AND I BELIEVE THAT THAT IS ESSENTIAL FOR EVERY INDIVIDUAL, NOT ONLY IN THIS COUNTRY BUT AROUND THE WORLD.

TO HAVE THESE CONNECTIONS.

TO HAVE THESE ALMOST WEEKLY GATHERINGS, IT'S LIKE YOU ARE GIVING FOOD TO YOUR SOUL, TO YOUR SOCIAL ORGAN.

I STARTED WORKING MORE ON THAT BECAUSE I SAW A VISUAL BRIDGE BETWEEN MY CREATIONS, MYSELF, AND THE REST OF THE COMMUNITY.

THEN I STARTED THINKING OF WHAT I AM WITHOUT THE PEOPLE AROUND ME AND MYSELF BEING SO SOCIAL, AND THE PEOPLE WHO HAS BEEN SUPPORTING ME THROUGH MY WHOLE LIFE.

SO I STARTED SEEING --SEEING THAT.

I SAW THAT BEFORE BUT I NEVER ADDED TO A PAINTING.

BUT THEN I BUILT THAT NARRATIVE AND KEPT WORKING ON THIS SERIES THAT BECOME SOCIAL ORGANS.

IT JUMP FROM MYSELF AND WHAT I'M DOING AND WHAT THE COMMUNITY IS DOING TO ME TO OTHERS INDIVIDUALS WHO HAS BEEN MENTORED AND THAT ARE ALSO BUILDING SOME SORT OF COMMUNITY AND HOW THEIR CLOSE COMMUNITY IS ALSO IMPACTING AND BUILDING THEM.

SO FROM THAT IDEA THEN I STARTED THINKING ABOUT HOW THE U. S. HAS BEEN BUILT WITH THIS IDEA OF THE RUGGED INDIVIDUALISM VERSUS WHAT I EXPERIENCE LIVING HERE AND WHAT I EXPERIENCE BY TALKING WITH THESE OTHER INDIVIDUALS AND WHAT THEIR LIFE HAS BEEN, ACTUALLY LIKE MINE THEY HAVE BEEN RECEIVING A LOT OF SUPPORT FROM MANY PEOPLE.

I NEVER EXPERIENCE TRAVELING WITH FELLOW ARTISTS.

YOU KNOW, YOU TRAVEL WITH FAMILY.

YOU TRAVEL WITH FRIENDS.

YOU TRAVEL WITH OTHER PEOPLE.

BUT WHEN YOU GET A BUNCH OF THESE CRAZY ARTISTS TOGETHER THAT ALL OF THEM THINK DIFFERENTLY AND SEE DIFFERENT THINGS, IT'S GREAT.

I MEAN, IT'S COOL.

IT'S LIKE YOU FEEL A LITTLE BIT LIKE A LITTLE KID.

I'VE SEEN NEW THINGS.

AND THAT'S IMPORTANT.

BECAUSE THAT'S SOMETHING THAT YOU BRING BACK.

AND MAYBE YOUR CREATIONS, YOUR PAINTINGS WILL BE CHANGED FOR BETTER OR YOUR INTERACTIONS WILL BE CHANGING FOR BETTER.

OR YOU WERE THINKING SOMETHING OF THIS CULTURE BEFORE TRAVELING THERE, YOU WERE TRAVELING WITH FEAR.

BUT THEN AGAIN THOSE WALLS FALLS DOWN AND YOU HAVE EVERYTHING IN FRONT OF YOU.

IT'S A VERY 360 PERSPECTIVE OF WHAT YOU CAN ACTUALLY BE EXPERIENCING.

AND OF COURSE WHEN YOU CONNECT WITH A LOCAL ARTIST AND YOU BECOME FELLOW FRIENDS AND YOU SHARE, YOU KNOW, AGAIN, THAT CULTURE THROUGH THE PAINTING OR THE CREATION OR THE FOOD AND SO ON, THAT BUILDS CONNECTIONS AND THAT BUILDS ACTUALLY THAT HOPE FOR TRYING TO BUILD THIS BETTER WORLD.

COM.

NEXT WE HEAD INTO THE KITCHEN WITH ONE OF THE FOUNDING MEMBERS OF ONE OF THE OLDEST ARTIST-OWNED AND OPERATED GALLERY IN COLUMBUS.

AND OF COURSE WE'LL MAKE A QUICK BITE.

WITH ME TODAY IS JUDY HONBERG, FOUNDING MEMBER OF STUDIOS ON HIGH GALLERY.

JUDY, THANKS FOR BEING HERE.

>> SO GLAD TO BE HERE.

THANK YOU.

>> OF COURSE.

>> TELL US ABOUT THE HISTORY OF STUDIOS ON HIGH.

>> WELL, I WAS A GOOD FRIEND OF SANDY WOOD, WHO DEVELOPED THE SHORT NORTH AREA.

AND SO I WAS ONE OF HIS FIRST TENANTS ALONG WITH TWO OTHER ARTISTS THAT WERE LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO DISPLAY THEIR WORK.

WE HAD ALL OF OUR STUDIOS INDIVIDUALLY IN THERE BUT UNDER THE UMBRELLA STUDIOS ON HIGH.

AND THAT WAS IN '87.

SO WE'RE COMING UP ON OUR 40 th NEXT YEAR.

>> WOW.

>> THAT'S A LONG TIME.

AND I HOPE PEOPLE DON'T DO THE MATH.

SO IT JUST GREW AND GREW.

WE STARTED IT JUST TO GET OUR ARTWORK OUT.

AND THEN WE SORT OF DEVELOPED A COMMUNITY AMONG THE THREE OF US.

THEN ONE PERSON NEEDED TO RETIRE.

AND SO WE BROUGHT IN OTHER ARTISTS TO DISPLAY AND STARTED DIVIDING UP ALL OF THE OBLIGATIONS OF RUNNING A GALLERY, WHICH ARE MANY.

THEN IT KEPT GROWING AND GROWING.

AND I HAD MY STUDIO THERE AS A MANAGER FOR 30 YEARS.

AND THEN WE HAVE A WONDERFUL TEAM NOW OF A TRIO THAT RUN THE GALLERY AND KEEP US IN LINE.

SO NOW WE HAVE 18 LOCAL ARTISTS, ALWAYS BEEN LOCAL ARTISTS.

AND EVERY TIME YOU COME IN YOU MEET AT LEAST TWO OF OUR ARTISTS DEMONSTRATING THEIR CREATIVITY.

>> OH, WOW.

THAT'S WONDERFUL.

>> UNIQUE IN THAT WAY.

WE ARE THE OLDEST GALLERY IN THE SHORT NORTH AND PROUD OF THAT.

>> ABSOLUTELY.

>> LOVE THE AREA.

LOVE THE NEIGHBORS.

AND IT'S JUST SUCH A CREATIVE ATMOSPHERE ALL THE WAY AROUND.

>> MUST BE SUCH A PRIVILEGE TO WATCH THAT AREA GROW AND TO SEE THE ARTISTS.

>> IT REALLY HAS BEEN.

YEAH.

SO MANY UNIQUE ONE-OF-A-KIND STORES THAT PEOPLE WHO ARE RUNNING THEM ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT.

IT'S SOMETHING THEY ALWAYS WANTED TO DO.

SO THERE'S A REAL FEEL IN THE AREA OF PEOPLE BLOSSOMING, DOING WHAT THEY WANT TO DO.

>> LOTS OF CREATIVE SPIRIT.

>> EXACTLY.

>> WONDERFUL.

SPEAKING OF GETTING CREATIVE, TELL ME WHAT DELICIOUS DISH WE'RE MAKING TODAY.

>> WELL, IT'S A GLORIFIED CARROT DISH.

>> I LOVE THAT.

>> WITH VERY SIMPLE INGREDIENTS.

AND I CONFESS IT HADN'T BEEN IN MY FAMILY FOR YEARS BUT I FOUND IT IN A MAGAZINE.

AND IT WAS SO BEAUTIFULLY DISPLAYED AS THE FINISHED PROJECT.

>> YEAH, SOMETIMES IT'S THE BEST WAY TO FIND RECIPES.

TO STUMBLE UPON THEM.

>> BUT I'VE ALWAYS BEEN ON A QUEST FOR GOOD CARROT RECIPES BECAUSE MY DAUGHTER HATES CARROTS.

AND SO I MADE HER TEST A BITE OF EVERY TIME WE HAD CARROTS, AND SO IT'S A FAMILY JOKE.

>> HAVE YOU EVER FOUND ONE SHE LIKES?

>> THIS.

>> THIS ONE.

WE HAVE A WINNER.

>> YEAH.

SHE TOLD ME TO BE SURE TO TELL YOU THAT.

>> THAT'S HUGE.

GOOD TO KNOW.

SO IF YOU HAVE SOMEONE WHO'S ON THE FENCE ABOUT CARROTS, THIS IS THE DISH.

>> IT IS.

AND IT'S BEAUTIFUL.

AND WE'RE ALWAYS LOOKING --I'M ALWAYS LOOKING FOR SIDE DISHES.

THAT ARE PRETTY AND COLORFUL.

>> YES.

BECAUSE WE EAT WITH OUR EYES FIRST.

SOMETHING SO PRETTY AND VIBRANT.

>> THIS DEFINITELY IS THE ONE I LIKE.

>> TELL US WHAT INGREDIENTS WE'LL NEED.

>> THE INGREDIENTS WE'LL NEED ARE ONE POUND OF CARROTS, ONE TABLESPOON OF BUTTER, ONE TEASPOON SUGAR, A HALF A CUP OF PITTED KALAMATA OLIVES, TWO TABLESPOONS DRAINED CAPERS, TWO TEASPOONS MINCED CHIVES.

>> JUDY, I'M EXCITED TO START PREPARING THIS DISH.

BEFORE WE DO TELL ME ABOUT SOME OF THE TYPES OF ART PEOPLE CAN EXPERIENCE AT STUDIOS ON HIGH.

>> WELL, WITH 18 ARTISTS WE HAVE A HUGE VARIETY.

WE COVER ALMOST EVERY BASE, 2-D, 3-D.

SO THERE'S SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE.

AND WHEN YOU COME IN AS I MENTIONED YOU CAN MEET THEM.

AND INTERACTING WITH THE PUBLIC IS A REALLY IMPORTANT PART OF OUR COMMUNITY.

WE FEEL WE HAVE A COMMUNITY AMONG OURSELVES AS WELL AS THE LARGER COMMUNITY IN THE AREA.

AND THAT'S BEEN A VERY --PART OF MAKING CREATIVITY MORE FUN, AND WE GIVE EACH OTHER INPUT AND CRITIQUING, VERY SELDOM CRITIQUING.

SO WE HAVE PAINTERS.

WE HAVE SCULPTORS.

WE HAVE LID WORKERS.

WE HAVE CERAMICS.

WE COVER ABOUT EVERY BASE.

>> THAT'S GREAT.

I LOVE THAT IDEA OF THE ARTISTS ARE AT WORK WHEN YOU ENTER THE GALLERY BECAUSE SOME FOLKS ARE KIND OF INTIMIDATED TO COME IN.

IT'S HERE THEY ARE, THEY'RE WORKING, THEY'RE SHOWING YOU HOW THE PROCESS GOES.

THAT'S A NICE WAY FOR PEOPLE TO CONNECT.

>> IT REALLY IS.

AND COMMUNICATION IS WHAT ARTISTS REALLY CRAVE.

WE'RE MAKING ART.

WE'RE LOVING THE PROCESS.

WE'RE LOVING THE COMMUNITY.

BUT WE REALLY WANT TO HAVE A VIEWER CONNECT WITH US AND UNDERSTANDING HOW IT'S MADE REALLY HELPS THAT CONNECTION.

>> THAT'S SUCH A GOOD POINT.

I THINK WE SHOULD GET STARTED.

WHAT'S OUR FIRST STEP HERE?

>> WELL, HALF A CUP OF WATER.

>> BUTTER OR WATER?

>> YOU PUT IT ALL IN THE PAN AT ONCE.

>> I ASSUMED BUTTER WAS GOING IN.

>> NO.

>> INTERESTING.

>> BUTTER.

>> OKAY.

>> PROBABLY SHOULDN'T BE TOUCHING IT.

I'VE GOT CLEAN HANDS.

>> DO WE NEED A LITTLE TOOL TO MOVE THAT BUTTER AROUND OR ARE WE -- >> PROBABLY, YEAH.

>> I'LL GRAB THAT.

>> AND THE SURPRISE IS THERE'S NO SALT ADDED BECAUSE THE OTHER INGREDIENTS ADD A LOT OF SALT.

>> AND THAT'S SUGAR THAT JUST WENT IN.

DOES THAT KIND OF BRING OUT THE SWEETNESS OF THE CARROTS?

>> WELL, IT HELPS THE CARROTS CARAMELIZE.

>> OF COURSE.

>> SO YOU BOIL ALL THE WATER AWAY.

YOU COVER IT FOR EIGHT MINUTES.

AND LET IT COOK THE CARROTS.

AND WHEN THAT'S DONE AND THE WATER NEEDS TO DISAPPEAR, SO THE BUTTER CAN DO THE JOB OF BROWNING -- >> I GOT YOU.

WE CAN GIVE THAT BUTTER A STIR.

GOOD START WITH MELTED BUTTER.

CAN'T GO WRONG.

THAT'S SO FUNNY THAT YOUR DAUGHTER DIDN'T LIKE CARROTS AND YOU WENT ON A QUEST TO FIND A RECIPE SHE LIKES.

MAYBE SHE LIKES OLIVES AND CAPERS AND IT COVERS UP THE CARROTS.

>> WELL, SHE DOES.

SO WE CAN ACTUALLY ADD THE CARROTS AT THIS POINT.

>> OKAY.

>> BECAUSE ALL THE INGREDIENTS EXCEPT FOR THE OLIVES AND CAPERS GO IN ALL AT ONCE.

>> OKAY.

>> AND THEN PUT A LID ON IT AND LET IT COOK FOR EIGHT MINUTES.

>> WHILE WE WAIT FOR THE CARROTS TO COOK I SEE THIS GORGEOUS BOWL HERE.

CAN YOU TELL ME THE STORY BEHIND THIS?

>> YES.

YOU SAID I COULD BRING A BOWL WITH ME FROM ONE OF OUR ARTISTS.

JENNIFER JOLLEY BROWN.

IT'S A GORGEOUS GLAZE.

BUT THE REAL SURPRISE IS THE BOTTOM OF IT.

LOOK AT THAT.

>> THAT'S SO INTRICATE AND BEAUTIFUL.

I LOVE THAT THE BOTTOM IS KIND OF A SURPRISE.

>> YEAH.

YEAH.

AND I THINK IT WOULD LOOK GREAT SITTING ON A MIRROR.

>> OH, THAT'S A GOOD IDEA.

>> YOU CAN LOVE THE BOTTOM AS WELL AS THE TOP.

BUT WITH THE ORANGE CARROTS THAT SEEMS LIKE A REAL NATURAL -- >> IT'S GOING TO POP.

>> SO WE REALLY AT THE GALLERY FEEL STRONGLY ABOUT ORIGINAL ART.

AND BY GETTING TO KNOW THE ARTIST.

ONE OF OUR ARTISTS, ANNETTE SIMON, WROTE A BEAUTIFUL QUOTE.

I WOULD LIKE TO READ.

>> PLEASE.

>> IN A WORLD OVERFLOWING WITH MASS-PRODUCED AND ALGORITHM- GENERATED IMAGES, ORIGINAL ART IS A BREATH OF HUMANITY AND NATURE.

WHEN YOU BRING ORIGINAL ART INTO YOUR SPACE, YOU'RE NOT JUST DECORATING WALLS OR HALLWAYS, YOU'RE INVITING A STORY IN, A VOICE AND A PIECE OF HUMAN EXPRESSION THAT EXISTS NOWHERE ELSE.

>> I MEAN, THAT'S BEAUTIFUL.

>> ISN'T IT BEAUTIFUL?

IT TRULY IS.

A MOTTO FOR --YES.

>> THAT'S A WONDERFUL SENTIMENT.

ABSOLUTELY.

>> SO I LIKE TO GET THEM KIND OF BLACKENED SO THEY --YEAH.

THERE IT'S BEGINNING TO BROWN A LITTLE BIT.

>> NO, NOT REALLY.

I JUST MEAN LIKE -- >> YOU REALLY DID A GOOD JOB.

IT ALWAYS TAKES LONGER THAN I THINK.

BUT IT TRULY ADDS THE DARK COLOR OF THE CARROTS AS THEY BROWN.

IT'S A VERY NICE ADDITION.

>> ABSOLUTELY.

>> COME ON, CARROTS.

>> THEY'RE SMELLING GOOD.

>> YEAH.

>> GETTING THERE.

>> AND I HATE TO BAKE BECAUSE I DON'T FOLLOW DIRECTIONS VERY WELL.

>> I THINK THIS IS AN ARTIST THING, COMMON WITH -- >> ACTUALLY - - >> YOU WANT TO WING IT.

>> THAT'S RIGHT.

SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

AND MOST OF OUR ARTISTS, I THINK MAYBE ALL, LOVE TO COOK.

>> YEAH.

BECAUSE COOKING IS ART.

AND YOU CAN BE CREATIVE AND YOU CAN CHANGE IT UP AND TRY DIFFERENT INGREDIENTS.

>> ABSOLUTELY.

YEAH.

ALL RIGHT.

>> IT SMELLS INCREDIBLE.

SMELLS SO GOOD.

PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE, CARROTS.

JUDY, THESE LOOK BEAUTIFUL.

THEY SMELL INCREDIBLE.

>> THEY DO.

>> ARE WE READY TO TOSS IN OUR INGREDIENTS?

>> JUST GETTING A LITTLE BROWN THERE.

>> YOU CAN KEEP BROWNING, DEPENDING ON THE COLOR YOU WANT.

>> YEAH.

AND IT DOESN'T HURT CAPERS.

>> YOU CAN COOK THEM UP.

YEAH.

>> SO WE'LL JUST PUT THOSE IN.

>> GOOD SIZZLE.

>> WATCH THEM BROWN IN ONE SECOND.

>> CARROTS TOOK THEIR TIME.

>> AND THEN THE OLIVES.

>> GOOD MIX OF COLORS.

OOH.

>> YEAH.

>> NOW IT'S A PARTY.

>> IT IS.

>> REALLY PRETTY.

IS THAT IT?

>> THAT'S ALL.

>> THAT'S EASY.

WHEN DO THE CHIVES GO IN?

AT THE END AS A GARNISH?

>> AFTER YOU PUT THEM IN A BOWL.

>> OKAY.

JUDY, THIS IS A WORK OF ART.

>> IT'S BEAUTIFUL.

>> THE BOWL IS JUST STUNNING.

THE CARROTS LOOK AMAZING.

SO COLORFUL.

I'M EXCITED TO TASTE IT.

>> OH, GOOD.

>> BEFORE WE DO, WHAT'S ONE LAST THING YOU'D LIKE FOLKS TO KNOW ABOUT STUDIO ON HIGH?

>> I'D LIKE THEM TO KNOW IT'S AN EXPERIENCE TO COME IN.

YOU GET TO MEET THE ARTISTS.

YOU'LL HELP - - THEY'LL HELP EDUCATE YOU ON THEIR PROCESS.

AND I GUARANTEE YOU YOU WILL FEEL WELCOMED, COMFORTABLE, AND ENJOY THE VARIETY.

>> THAT'S GREAT.

WHAT MORE COULD YOU WANT?

>> THAT'S WHY I'VE STAYED THERE FOR 40 YEARS.

>> LET'S DIG IN.

THIS LOOKS INCREDIBLE.
