Cindy Rivers moved to Warrenton, Georgia, from Milledgeville, Georgia. She has won several honors in the Oconee Art Exhibitions (OAE) in Milledgeville over the past eight years. Cindy contributes as a member of the Warren County Arts Council, and is the events coordinator for the Warren County Chamber of Commerce.

Cindy is also a mother, homeschooler, and artist. She has done landscapes, still lifes, portraits, abstracts, and murals. She also is credited with some graphic artistry that she drew several years ago for an eye clinic brochure, calligraphy for church certificates and memorials, and designing and painting banners, signs and t-shirts. She works in all kinds of media: acrylics, oils, pastels, charcoal, colored pencils and stained glass.

Mrs. Rivers has produced several portraits, mainly of her daughter. Others include two self-portraits, one which was honored as Best Painting at the 2001 OAE, a portrait of her daughter, which was awarded an Honorable Mention in the 2002 OAE, a family portrait and a private commissioned piece. A pastel won her the honor of Best Drawing in her first appearance at the OAE. Cindy is currently working on commissioned pieces in her home.

Along with painting, Cindy Rivers has extensive experience in repairing pottery and other ceramics. She has been commissioned by antique dealers and private collectors over the past fifteen years to fix their chipped, cracked and broken pieces.
