Illustrator, designer, licensed artist and world traveler, Monica Lee began drawing not long after her birth in Italy and has never stopped. She is a creative soul who learned to play the ukulele, wrote poetry and drew on the lanai in Hawaii, painted ads on the windows of McDonald's in Georgia, and designed and drew pictures of prom dresses that she begged her mother to sew. All of these experiences seep into her artwork, giving it the verve that bubbles out of it.
