Juana was born in Lima, Peru . At an early age, she discovered her love for art and drawing. Daddy and grampa were ecstatic. Their artistic genes were passed on for another generation! With nothing but her own two hands and her passion for Hello Kitty, she attended the Fine Arts School at Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. With a leap of faith, she moved to the United States in 1995. Then in 2000, she met a young man who enjoyed watching cartoons, too. They married a couple of years later. Juana now lives in Scottsdale , Arizona with her husband Chris, their two young boys, and Mr. Snaggle-Tooth Kitty. They all watch cartoons together. Email Juana at me@juanamartinezneal.com |
