Louis Carreon is a California born contemporary artist changing the way art is perceived. Through passion, honesty, and a willingness to share his work, Louis is one of today’s most influential and innovative contemporary artists. With a colorful past to draw on, his work is not merely modern art or street art but modernism told in a voice that drips onto the canvas. Having been commissioned by some of the most recognized venues throughout the United States, his creations are immediately recognizable. Every stroke of the brush or the spray of the can has a story to tell.Â
Marian apparitions are supernatural appearances by the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus. Dating back many centuries, several of these appearances have been authenticated by the Catholic Church. One of the first took place in Guadalupe, Mexico in December of 1531. An Aztec man named Juan Diego communicated with an apparition of Mary over several days. Mary left behind an image of herself on Juan Diego’s cloak, which still hangs in the local church today.Â
Each SAINT Candle comes with a prayer to the patron saint, holy oil as part of the wax (blessed by both a priest and a rabbi), and an Italian prayer coin embedded into the candle honoring the patron saint which reveals itself once the candle has burned down.
Fragrance Notes: White Florals, Indian Tuberose, Tahitian Vanilla

Ira DeWitt, a music executive with a PhD in education, wanted to give her friend suffering from cancer something more purposeful than flowers or a card, something that evoked a sense of comfort and spirituality. Ira decided to create something herself, and this is how SAINT Candles, Modern Prayer Candles for a Cause, was born.  10% of all SAINT Candles sales are donated to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital to support their lifesaving mission.
