The Alchemy of Color

The Spotlight Series®
Written By Chris Ryan

Alicia LaChance is a self-taught painter who uses her craft to speak to others, each texture and color a means to understand and learn more about what it is to be human. She likens painting to a battle; a litany of emotions, the constant push and pull of relationships reflecting our own daily lives. Born in St. Louis, Alicia worked and traveled across Europe for years prior to settling back in her hometown, where along with Michael Hoffman, she opened Hoffman LaChance Contemporary in Maplewood in 2004.
