As
an artist, Maria Cecilia Santos began painting
at the tender age of 6. Since then, her love of
art and life has surpassed all of the
adversities that came with the loss of her
ability to see, all while still being able to
achieve success within both her personal and
professional life as a woman.
For the
past 12 years, Maria Cecilia Santos has been
transmitting her spirit of conquering and
overcoming through her testimony of life “eyes
within” and with her generous contributions to
numerous charities and public institutions like
orphanages and schools for the blind.
Due
to the loss of her vision, Maria Cecilia Santos
developed a self taught technique for painting.
By positioning needles on the face of a
painting, they serve as guides for her
inspiration, enabling her art to come to life.
In
the summer of 2000, Maria Cecilia Santos
embarked on a journey where she has shared her
testimony with the entire world, via the
internet. This was created as a means to help
individuals who wish to recharge their
positivity for life thus enabling another point
of view where they can appreciate the true value
and meaning of life.
