Bio
Hi! My name is Candice Grant and I’m deeply passionate about colors. I first discovered my love for colors while studying Graphic Design, and since then I’ve been exploring the beauty of acrylic colors through my abstract paintings. I strongly believe that colors have the power to inspire, evoke emotions, and transform spaces. Each of my paintings aims to inspire viewers to see the world from a different perspective, just as colors have inspired me.
Artist Statement
Candice uses colorful art to express herself during challenging times. Her paintings reflect her innermost thoughts and feelings, with each piece expressing a unique narrative. She prefers bold colors as they symbolize the freedom from fear and shame. Candice believes that vibrant art can inspire and energize others, and her main goal is to spread positivity through her, leaving viewers to be inspired. Abstract art is her passion, full of life and energy, bursting with color.
Candice, her fiancé Dennis and their Persian cat Mika live and work in Surrey, British Columbia. She is a graduate of Loyalist College in Graphic Design.

Which piece of art you've created is your favourite, and why?
Experiencing an Altered Reality is my favorite piece I have created. What I love most about this piece is how the lines create a dramatic shadow effect. I love the shadow lines so much that I took them to the sides of the canvas to add a pop on all sides of the painting.
