Cyndi Merrill

The ocean brings back memories of family vacations and good times. Being landlocked makes me miss the ocean, so I infuse it into my art.

What is your favorite type of art to create?

I love working in ceramics. It's like being a kid again and playing in the mud!

Where do you find inspiration?

I find my inspiration in the sea. I was a Navy wife for over 20 years. The salt water smells, sand between my toes, and snorkeling in the shallow are some of the best times I've had.

What would you do with $25,000?

$25,000 would let me recreate my studio. I had to sell everything in order to move closer to my elderly mother. Family always comes first, but my art is a close second.
