About

---

 Hi; I'm Candy Parker, an Arizona-based artist who loves bright colors and abstract art. Every painting you see on the site was created by me in my home art studio.

My art journey began at age 58 in June 2020 when, after a lifetime of telling myself I wasn't artistic, I came across the work of French artist John Beckley on YouTube. 

While I'd not picked up a paintbrush since middle school Art class in the 1970s, Beckley's work lit a fire in me and when I became an empty-nester, I converted my newfound free space into an art studio.

Now, when I'm not at work as a Communications Director for a group of powersports dealerships, I'm in my art studio or online ordering paint, canvases, and more masking tape than I'd previously used in an entire lifetime.

I feel immensely fortunate that my work has been so well received, with over 300 paintings finding new homes across the U.S. and Canada. My goal is to create bold and fun abstract art that is accessible to every art lover.

I thank you for your interest in my passion project and appreciate you joining me on the journey. I welcome any questions you may have and hope you'll visit again soon and follow me on Facebook and Instagram where I unveil new work and post behind-the-scenes photos and videos.
