I am half Korean, half Caucasian and my husband is Caucasian so we too have a mixed family. I grew up in Rhode Island and have been drawing and painting since I was in 1st grade. Marrying into the Navy has fulfilled so many travel experiences we shared some as a family and now we have planted retirement roots in Hawaii. I have a Graphic Design degree and currently do my own fine art work to share with the world www.kimberlyratliffart.com. With moving and having children I've put a lot of things on hold for a long time. Now in my 7th chapter of my life, I'd like to share my writing and illustration with the world about diversity and a modern Korean-American lifestyle through the eyes of a little girl named Seoul.
