Candace Slager is a drawing artist living on Australia’s Gold Coast. She is best known for her diverse subjects and detailed works that catch the eye.
“I choose my subjects like I choose my food: I’ll have a little of everything.”
Candace primarily works with colour pencil and graphite, specialising in expressing realism through her technique.
Her art’s ability to capture realistic detail and captivate and move emotions resulted in her piece ‘This is not a drill’ being announced the winner of the 2020 Art Lovers Australia Prize.
Candace’s work is often inspired by something offbeat, situations of everyday life or from her travels. Some pieces tell a clear story, others allow the viewer to derive their own meaning and connection. Being unencumbered by set themes and subjects allows her to create something truly unique to the occasion.
