About the Author
Born in Ukraine, Diana has loved drawing since childhood. Though her parents encouraged her to pursue architecture—leading her to earn a master’s degree in the field—her passion for illustration never faded. She began her career by illustrating a spread for a Ukrainian children’s magazine, which sparked her journey into children’s book illustration. Two years ago, she moved to the U.S. due to the war, joining her husband, who has lived here for 11 years. In California, she deepened her expertise in digital art and collaborated with self-published authors to bring their books to life.
