Contemporary Artist. Dopamine Maximalist. Maker of Beautiful Little Worlds.

Candace Marquette doesn't really believe in decorating the ordinary.

She believes in transforming it.

A vintage brooch can become a leopard's crown. A teapot can become a jeweled treasure. Candy can become art. A pillow can become a character. A forgotten object can become a future heirloom.

For nearly three decades, Candace has been creating at the intersection of art, design, fashion, imagination, and storytelling. Her signature style is unapologetically colorful, dimensional, playful, and a little bit unexpected—what she calls dopamine maximalism.

Her mixed-media worlds are built from paint, glitter, jewels, crystals, vintage treasures, found objects, candy, paper, textiles, embellishments, and whatever else happens to spark an idea. Nothing is too ordinary to become extraordinary.

But underneath all the color and sparkle is something much deeper: joy, hope, wonder, and the belief that imagination can change the way we experience the world.

Candace's creative career has taken her from design and fashion to television, publishing, product collaborations, murals, hospitality, digital art, and immersive creative experiences. Her work has been featured internationally and collected and exhibited across cities including New York, Paris, London, Zurich, Dubai, and beyond. She has collaborated with more than 150 brands and has created work for both private collectors and large-scale environments.

Today, Candace Marquette Art is an ever-expanding universe of paintings, collectible art, home objects, murals, commissions, surface design, and immersive creative worlds.

Her philosophy is simple:

Art should make you feel something.

It should make you smile.
It should make you curious.
It should make you stop.
It should make you dream.

And if it happens to have a little glitter, a vintage jewel, a leopard, a butterfly, and a piece of candy attached to it?

Even better.

Welcome to the world of Candace Marquette.

Art you can enter.
Art you can collect.
Art that makes you feel something.
