"...I was blind but now I see!” (John 9:25 NIV)

ABOUT THE OWNER
Candi M. is a self-taught freelance graphic designer. She loved "The Arts" from childhood. In 2006, she lost over 90% of her natural eyesight due to complications of keratoconus. In order to restore most of her vision, she underwent two corneal transplants (one in each eye). The most memorable and most encouraging part of Candi's testimony is when she often states,

"I remember when the eye surgeon removed the shield from my eye post-surgery and I opened my eye. I could see my mama's face so clear. I hadn't seen her face and colors so clear since my childhood days! I truly do not take my vision or any of my senses for granted! This is why I love colors so much. Can you imagine going months only seeing monochromatic silhouettes and having to feel your way around or identify people by their voice? I am simply grateful for I once was blind but now I see!"

Candi has plans to write a book in the future that will capture her full experience.

THE BRAND
After her successful corneal transplants and recovery periods, Candi attended college to enhance her existing skills. She obtained certifications in Web Development, Personal Branding, and Computer Technology. Afterwards, she started to design again. She created her brand, Candi M. Designs, in 2015 after the unexpected death of her father. Her father, some of her close relatives, and friends always encouraged her to use her God-given talents and make them work for her. Candi M. Designs includes her original artwork, graphic designs, and now print on demand items. Candi M. Designs is her testimony in the form of art!
