When I look at this canvas, it reminds me that i still have a journey to complete and that one day I will be in my little black dress going to a gala reminiscing on my past trials by looking back with a smirk saying “Wow look how far I’ve come”. That is what I inspired to do!! I will send you a picture of that moment Chandra.

That is why i want your painting soo bad. you should have seen my face when i heard of the contest,lol my prayers are almost answered
sincerely, Ashanti

I absolutely love your artwork. I’m usually not a big art fan. A matter of fact I really don’t have any artwork on my wall except for two pictures representing my sorority. I decided to look for something that will spice up my bedroom and bathroom wall. I was surfing the net and was not finding one darn thing. As soon as I got ready to give up I came across one of your pictures – Divine- on Yahoo Images. I clicked on it and it lead me to your website. I fell in love with all of your pictures. Your story of how this came to be was inspiring. I too have found myself laid-off, starting over, and trying to make sense of everything. Your artwork captures the true essence of women and bring it to life on canvas. I’m not sure if the drawing for Inspire is over but I had to leave a comment. I absolutely love this painting. As an African-American woman, sometimes it hard to find artwork that truly captures the beauty of us. You with several brushstrokes and love was able to show the world our beauty. I absolutely love it!!! I plan on saving up to purchase it for my birthday next month. It will be nice to have on my wall and look at it each day. It will be a reminder of why I work so hard in life to be a better person and to achieve all of my goals. Thank you so much for all your hardwork. Your talent and love for what you do shows in your work. I wish you further success and joy now and in the future!!! You are an inspiration!!!!

Chandra,
I recently discovered your art while doing random searches for Illustrators — I’ve been blown away ever since! Your FB post/story on the birth of Sugarluxe really encouraged me today. For the past few months, things have been pretty slow for me as a freelancer. However, I’ve been contributing this time to work on a personal project, marrying my passion for design/art with my entrepreneurial spirit. The idea was inspired by my eldest daughter, Priah. I THOUGHT the perfect plan for my life was to get married, become a creative director, maybe a kid – but LIFE has proved much differently – For the best. Through late nights & kiddie nap times, this journey of entrepreneurship can get tough. But the closer I get to my vision, it makes it more challenging to go back to “just thinking about it.” Thanks so much for your story & your art. To have this in my home will be a reminder of anything worth having, is definitely worth fighting for (even if does come out with a scratch or two.) Lol!

I absolutely love your work and I am hoping to win this piece! I think it would be a great finishing touch to my new home. I work in child protective services and I always hope to inspire the kids I work with on a daily basis. Having “Inspire” in my home and seeing it on a daily basis will do just that! Your commitment to repairing it is so commendable and I’d be proud to have it in my home!

Happy Valentine’s Weekend Sugarluxe lovers!

Hola Chica!! HOw I love Sugarluxe art.. let me count the ways…
I love the chicas, they are confident, powerful, sensual, beutiful, fabulous,sexy and the art pieces pull you in straight as soon as you look at the eyes. I love the art, but Inspire caught my attention because of the Hibiscus in her ear, which signifies to hispanics “Delicate beauty”, its the flower of my very dear Puerto Rico! The Inspire art piece is excatly that- a Delicate beauty. It draws you in. Its mesmerizing!

I love your entire new series! Of course i’m a total SugarLuxe girl and love all your work and all the different SugarLuxe girls. I especially love this piece, “Inspire”. I think all women inspire others in both big and small ways and like the canvas even though we are all slightly damaged we can still be and do great things. YOU, Ms. Chandra Inspire me!

I love all your work. Everything you do just leaps off the canvas and makes a person want it. The colors always pop and just show tremendous style.
