Chantal Rousseau is a wandering artist. She loves nature, especially birds and amphibians, and making watercolours and animated GIFs that feature them. She recently spent the winter in a motel in the Gaspésie and fell in love with the ocean and big storms. She is a fan of artist generated projects and artist collectives, and organized EXPO-MOTEL, an exhibition at the motel she was staying in, working with two local artists and with support from the region's artist-run centre Vaste-et-Vague. Chantal is currently the first artist-in-residence at 4elements living arts new mobile studio, parked on a community garden on Manitoulin Island.

Chantal recorded this ep with me while she was in her parked car, using internet from a local library, so sometimes the sound ducks in and out, but the fascinating conversation about art, about living your life, about slow living, all make up for it.
