Artist Bio- Merissa Sincavage Seminara


Merissa Sincavage Seminara earned her Bachelors of Fine Arts Degree and minor in art history at Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia. She has received numerous private commissions throughout the Philadelphia area and has continued to investigate the arts on her own while volunteering at wildlife rehabilitation facilities, working with animals in the veterinary field, traveling throughout Europe, inventing like MacGyver, organically gardening, caring for her menagerie of pets, being married and having a child.

Most recently, she has been inspired by her son’s love for the arts, animals and anything aquatic (sharks, boats, geese, etc). Merissa has been spending lots of time out and about all over Brooklyn, NY where she currently resides. Feeding the pond creatures in Prospect Park, visiting the sharks and turtles at the aquarium, going to any museum that will tolerate busy little guys and playing with friends and family all over NYC and Pennsylvania, it is a regular adventure for this active artist mom.

  1. Love the Bio! Little guy is definitely lucky to have such a full and active mind comprising of the best of you both!

    I circulated the show info to some friends in NYC. Looks like a great show, interesting thoughts running through my head about the compass in my life. I will be there in spirit. Enjoy.

    Let me know if the little guy has a show-- or not, I would treasure one of his pieces!
