When color + careful observation meet, you get Virginia Candler

"Art allows you to access your soul," is only one of the many thoughtful snippets from my conversation with New Orleans-based artist, Virginia Candler. I enjoyed talking with her so much because we have a similar take on what happens when you’re moved by a piece of art and how that experience can tell you more about yourself. She’s also living in the city that makes me want to write poetry every time I go (NOLA!) and I loved hearing how she is taking part in a supportive and vibrant group of local artists there. By the way, she often uses native plants to New Orleans in her mixed media abstracts and her color combinations are out of this world. Finally, her answer to What’s been working for you from a sales perspective? will surprise (and delight!) you. When color and careful observation meet, you get Virginia Candler. I can’t wait for you to meet her.
