Candace Marquette is an internationally recognized multidisciplinary artist, creative visionary, and immersive experience curator with more than 25 years of professional artistic practice.

Her body of work spans fine art painting, large-scale mural installations, NFT and digital art collections, fashion collaborations, global art exhibitions, interior design concepts, and wellness-centered creative experiences.

Candace’s artistic foundation was built through decades of exploration in color theory, abstraction, emotional storytelling, and spatial composition. Her large-scale murals transform architectural environments into living canvases, blending bold color fields with expressive movement and contemporary design aesthetics.

Her work has been exhibited in galleries and art spaces internationally, allowing her vibrant visual language to reach collectors and audiences around the world.

In the digital art space, Candace has expanded her creative presence through NFT collections and blockchain-based art releases, merging traditional painterly expression with emerging technology.

Her fashion and wearable art projects extend her signature color sensibility beyond canvas — integrating fine art into fabric, statement pieces, and curated design collaborations.

In addition to visual art, Candace is deeply rooted in health, wellness, and creative empowerment. Her immersive workshops are intentionally designed as restorative, confidence-building environments where creativity becomes a form of self-care and emotional expression. She views art not only as aesthetic output but as a transformative wellness practice.

Her home décor and design work further reflects her belief that art should live within everyday spaces — turning interiors into curated experiences through color harmony, balance, and intentional energy.

Across all mediums — canvas, walls, digital platforms, fashion, and environments — Candace’s mission remains consistent:

To awaken creativity, empower self-expression, and elevate everyday spaces through bold, soulful color.

Choose Your Color Palete, Or Let Your Heart Guide You!

Your color choices say a lot about you. The unique experience you have and your re

Velvety purples melting into midnight blues — mysterious, calming, and deeply intuitive.

This diptych feels like twilight meeting still water — reflective, powerful, and quietly emotional. It holds the energy of depth and introspection, a visual memory of music, movement, and soulful expression captured in color.

Created by you. Guided with intention.
This two-panel abstract piece reflects your personal rhythm and emotional color palette. Imagine seeing it every day and remembering that you trusted your instincts and made something bold and beautiful.

Electric hot pink layered with softness and depth — a fearless expression of passion, confidence, and unapologetic energy.

This diptych radiates warmth and bold femininity, like a sunset turned up to full volume. When you hang this piece in your home, it becomes a reminder of the night you chose to be seen, vibrant, and creatively alive.

Two canvases. One story.
This diptych holds the energy of a moment — color chosen from feeling, movement guided by music, expression without rules. When you hang this on your wall, you’re not just displaying art… you’re remembering the night you created freely.

Lush greens blending into golden yellows — like sunlight filtering through leaves or the first spark of spring.

This pairing feels alive, renewing, and full of possibility. It carries the energy of growth and joy. Displayed on your wall, it becomes a daily reminder of optimism, expansion, and the moment you allowed your creativity to bloom.

Earlier this January, I was invited to teach at a local community event. I had the idea to do something different — not just paint the colors, but experience them. I encouraged everyone to “eat the colors” first, to engage their senses before expressing themselves on canvas.

The attendees were incredibly warm, open, and kind. The energy in the room was beautiful — full of laughter, creativity, and connection. We had such a wonderful time, and the response was overwhelmingly positive. It was truly a blast.

After the event, a dear friend and I reflected on how special the experience felt. Because it was such a hit, we decided to bring it to her Hello Boba Tea store in Allen and expand the vision even further.

Now, this newest event is the first of its kind in this format — more immersive, more intentional, and even more soulful. I am beyond thrilled and excited to embark on this creative journey with you and continue building something that celebrates color, connection, and fearless expression.
