Did you ever have one of those days where nothing you did seemed right? I had one of those really hard days today. So at the end of the evening, I was scrolling down through some photos on Instagram. I immediately recognized the person in this photo. I had to do a double-take. It's me, I thought. When I read the inscription, it was confirmed. It put a huge smile on my face. Thank you so very much, Neil Lecy, my artist friend, for making my day a lot brighter! 🎨 Your art turned my frown upside down! ~ Carly 

A Big Influence on Me

Carly Emerick of Candy Apple Blue

"I've always idolized flamboyant over-the-top figures that pushed the boundaries of the norm while growing up in the 1980s. People like Pete Burns of Dead or Alive, Boy George of Culture Club, and Tim Curry of The Rocky Horror Picture Show had a big influence on me."
