About the Artist:

Candice Alexander's attraction to generally overlooked elements of life led to collecting, sculpting and general creating, as design became for her, a synthesis for a passion of combining science, mechanics, light, color and kinetics. Between the years of 1997 - 2002, Alexander studied at McNeese State University and received a Bachelor¿s Degree in Visual Arts graduating Cum Laude. In 2006 she studied printmaking and portraiture at the University of New Mexico in Taos. In 1999 and 2001, she studied Art History abroad in Athens, Greece and Rome, Italy. In 2010 she was voted "best artist" in Lake Charles, LA.

Alexander Art Studio was founded in 2002 by Candice Alexander with a old school room, chalkboard and a huge idea. She started her journey as an artist in the old Historic Central School Building in Lake Charles, LA. 

With over 350 Original Fleur de lis designs inspired by Louisiana's rich culture, the work speaks to the diverse colors of the Cajun, the Roughneck, the Creole, the Hurricane Survivor, the Swamp Rocker, the Rice Farmer, the Mardi Gras Queen, and the Jazz Musician. The "Fleur de lis-Worlds Within Series" began in 2007 and captures the essence of the artist's native community.

 For the past 5 years, it has been a dream come true...and that's because of the love and support from our fans, friends, and connections like you. We invite you to visit the 5,000 sq. ft. gallery/studio space and view over 12 years of design and inspiration.
