Candace Whittemore Lovely
Candace Whittemore Lovely (born March 15, 1953) is an American impressionist painter known for her non-confrontational views of contemporary American life, including landscapes of treasured locales and people at play in idyllic locations. She lives and works in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina.
Her works have garnered some attention from notable Americans, including Former First Lady Barbara Bush for whom Lovely painted her official White House portrait in 1990, which now hangs in the George Bush Presidential Library and Museum. When they finished the final sitting, Lovely told Mrs. Bush, "You're Lovely and I'm Bushed!". Multiple critics have called Lovely "The Grand Dame of Boston Painters".〔quote by James Bakker, Fresh Paint Auction, The Copley Society, 2000〕
==Early life and education==
Lovely was born in Vermont, her mother an artist and her father an engineer. She had four siblings, all brothers. Her interest in art began at age four when a toy nursing kit lost its novelty.〔From the studio of Candace Whittemore Lovely, newsletter, Alex Levin, 2011〕 Her mother did not replace the candy pills that came with the kit, but did replace her crayons. Growing up, there were always craft supplies around the house and a sense that making was better than buying.〔
Lovely's father attended both Dartmouth and MIT and her grandfathers attended the University of Vermont and Harvard. Despite struggling with dyslexia, she attended college at the University of Vermont, where she was drawn to the world of American Impressionism after a professor discussed Winslow Homer and announced that "no one is taught how to paint anymore". She graduated from the university with a bachelor's degree in art and a fifth-year teaching certificate. Lovely admits to having bulimia in college, "Nobody really knew what eating disorders were back then; there was no communication about it. I think there's a lot of pressure when you're maturing, and all of a sudden you realize you look different from everyone else." In 1980, she began studying at The Boston School with master artists including Robert Cormier and Paul Ingbretson at Fenway Studios.
