I started making miniatures 34 years ago as a hobby. Then Cindi\u2019s Minis evolved with many shows leading to my position on the board of a non-profit organization that promoted miniatures for more than 15 years. I understand the marketing of our special art and know the hard work it takes to put on a show.
