Alicia Schulze-Makuch is an American author and artist that survives reality, one story at a time. She's originally from El Paso, Texas, but spent most of her childhood in Pullman, Washington running around barefoot, climbing trees, and creating magical worlds with her younger brother.
In the early days of constantly having paint-splattered hands, Alicia focused on realistic pencil drawings and painting in oil, watercolor, and acrylic. It was only recently that she discovered a new medium...
Crayons!
Though she still loves getting back to painting and pencil drawing, these days, you can find her scribbling away with a box of crayons and a huge grin on her face.
When Alicia's not physically creating art, she's a graphic designer at South Gate School.
