DIANE ALBER has had a passion for art since she held her first crayon at age two, which inspired her to subsequently earn a Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Arts from Arizona State University. She is a wife and mother of two young, energetic children who love books. She became inspired to start writing and illustrating books because she saw a need for a book that inspired art and creativity in children. She also hopes that her books help to encourage parents to be proud of their children’s artwork, no matter what!
