Lenny (Olena) Lishchenko is in fact, not a boy. She is an illustrator, designer, chronic storytelller, knowledge junkie and sewing enthusiast.
Originally born in Kyiv, she lives in Canada now.
Lenny likes (not including the obvious): TaeKwonDo, fiber arts, good books, noses, her cat Fat Tony, psychoanalyzing the hell out of strangers, writing, and the satisfaction of getting ink out from underneath her fingernails.
She also teaches at Sheridan College sometimes.
