Welcome to the blog dedicated to the artist,
Janice Candela Tate. This blog is written and maintained by her daughter, Angela Candela, featuring work by Janice Candela,
Mary Wands Campbell (Janice's mother) and other family members and friends.
If you are the owner of an original work by JCT or MWC, I would like to hear from you. Please post a comment.

About Me
- Angela Candela
- I was born into a family of artists starting with my grandmother, Mary Wands Campbell followed by my mother, Janice Campbell Candela Tate. All my siblings and I have followed her footsteps to some degree, but I think we would all agree that my mother was the master. She painted actively her whole life, but never felt that she has achieved success, though she did have a great deal of satisfaction. A Google search on her name brings up nothing. With this blog, I hope to remedy that situation. I follwed my artistic leanings into the world of fashion, majoring in Fashion Design at Pratt Institute, and have worked in the field ever since. When I would tell my mother of my children's artistic accomplishments, she would say, only half joking, "Oh, no! Cursed with the Art Gene!". Looking at her artwork, it is hard to imagine any way that the Art Gene could be a curse!

I have a painting by your mother called Off to the RAces. My husband bought it in Dobbs Ferry. We purchased a former horse farm and it hung in our library for quite a while. Recently, it has been in our "barn gallery." My husband died 1 1/2 yrs ago and I'm having a man clean out the barn..I was just walking through for a last look and saw the painting again..my husband had taped your mother's card on theback. I will hold on to the painting. I'd love to hear from you.
