Leighann Hill’s artistic inspiration was born when she gave birth to her children. After going to school for art, Hill worked in advertising and stopped painting. When she was attempting to decorate the nursery of the first of her three children, she was unable to find appealing, innocent artwork. When family members suggested that she create her own, she took their advice and began painting again. Hill’s charming art features animals, because they share her children’s innocence, sweetness and lovability.
