About the Artist
Candyce Hoskins is a visual artist working
out of her studio situated on Upper Caswell Lake in Willow,
Alaska, which is located halfway between Willow and Talkeetna.
Her view of life on this planet is one of awe. Humanity
never ceases to amaze her. Earth's landscape, its position
in our universe, its ever-present proximity to destruction
either through the misuse by humankind or through natural
forces, all contribute to Candyce's many sleepless nights and
creative hours. Her work was described by world-famous
artist Charles Reid, after jurying one of her works, as "...very
nicely realized. Beautiful shapes and lovely
lost-and-found quality in it."
Hoskins has won numerous awards on the state, national and
international levels. She is a former board member of the
Arrowhead Council of the Arts in Minnesota. Her work is
part of the permanent collection of the Anchorage Museum of
History and Art. Candyce is a signature member of the
Alaska Watercolor Society.
