About Me


Sugarluxe is America's Sweet Art. Created by artist and designer, Chandra Michaels - Sugarluxe now tops the list of favorite characters for accessories, home decor, gift items and wall art found in exclusive retail stores around the world.


Loved by movie stars and legendary musicians, to news anchors and network producers, Sugarluxe was recently praised as 'What's Next" by some of the hottest Hollywood insiders.

Drawing from the diverse layers of her own personality, Chandra has been described as a perplexing mix of Computer Nerd and Cheerleader, Collegiate Scholar and Vegas Showgirl. Chandra's work itself displays a similar dichotomy.

With an advanced degree in Psychology and highly inventive parents, Chandra found a way to use her genetically predisposed creativity in conjunction with her formal education to develop products and create characters to which people emotionally connect.


"I have been forever obsessed with the smell of cotton candy and the color pink. I adore old-fashioned cocktails, gin joints and lounge singers. I was born to play Velma Kelly, I never get tired of cartoons and I wear high heels all day long - even around the house. I will challenge you to a game of Chess or even Candy Land. I am impressed by generosity and a keen intellect. I am soft-hearted and tough-minded, shy and a show off. This is the inspiration behind the Sugarluxe brand and the really fantastic thing is, girls everywhere seem to get it." - Chandra Michaels

International PROPAGANDA III Show.
I was recently asked by the START SOMA Gallery in San Francisco to create a new piece/poster for Propaganda III. I had less than 24 hours to get this done so that it could be submitted for an article by BPM Magazine in Los Angeles covering the story of this touring exhibit.

It will undoubtedly be the most fascinating political poster art show that will tour the world through 2008 with dozens of one day art shows worldwide - the current schedule includes stops throughout North America, South America, Australia, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.
There will be no censorship of any sort. Expressed political viewpoints, be they left, right, or center, will be displayed side-by-side, both online AND in the traveling show. The final collection will be donated to the Center for the Study of Political Graphics in Los Angeles which houses the largest collection of Post World War II political graphics in the United States.

In conjunction with the PROPAGANDA III WORLD TOUR, START MOBILE is providing FREE mobile wallpapers of some of the most compelling submitted poster designs.
