About her work, Merlene writes, “In the past few years after my move to Santa Fe, I am finding my way back to the creative desires of my heart. This has presented more rewarding (and difficult) challenges than I ever have hoped for. The tools I acquired along the way are still the ones I turn to today help me remain centered and creative.”
