Elizabeth McClaren. Born on the Island of Aruba, in the Netherlands Antilles, Elizabeth began drawing at an early age, winning local and state art awards.

In the late eighties, Elizabeth took her artwork from canvas to computers and began electronically importing text and graphics into documents, creating presentations for local merchants and corporate businesses.

Upon retiring from the corporate world, Liz began to write her memoirs, which is how Lizzy’ s semiautobiographical series of children’s Illustrations and books evolved.
