'Candi's drawings are from the heart, tapping on ancestral knowledge and raw emotion to bring forth pictures full of artistic skill and accurate detail that will make the viewer study them carefully and come away enlightened. Her ability to interpret text and ideas and turn them into visuals is unrivaled. She's a pleasure to work with and I recommend her highly.'
