Candidie

Originally from the Milwaukee area, Candidie became a performer by the age of five. She turned professional at the age of twelve. After directing children’s theater at seventeen she studied at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois and The Juilliard School in New York City. Following commercials, road shows and teaching she turned to the visual arts and writing.

Candidie has answered to several commission opportunities in the mid-west and  the south. Galleries in those areas have welcomed her artwork.  She has written and illustrated three books:

“Emily and the Sea Creatures,”  “Send Cardinals,”  and her latest book entitled “Windswept.”

The author/artist resides in North  Carolina.
