\"Mina_lee\"Meet Mina Lee.  She is a collage artist that specializes in mixing old family photos with her funny bone… and boy is she good at it. (just you wait and see…  you’ll be laughing by the end of this article)  Here’s a little bit about her…<\/p>\n

"It’s so rewarding to see someone pick up a greeting card or place a piece of original art on their wall and step back with a smile. Bringing joy and laughter to people is the real basis of my art.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As a young Mom raising three kids, I started doing original paintings and mixed media collages between Spaghettios and soccer games. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

As my kids grew so did my commitment to bring a unique kind of art to people who would relish the idea of sharing it with a friend or putting a piece on their wall in just the right place. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The reason you can relate to my artwork and greeting card line is because I’ve been through a lot of the same experiences you have. Just like you, I’m trying to keep smiling and endeavoring to find the wonder through the every day. It’s our job to enjoy the journey!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

I know what it feels like to get older, be married, raise kids, have more bills than money at the end of the month, and try to make a difference in my time on the planet. I also know what it’s like to be a breast cancer survivor and all the lessons and triumphs that
bittersweet experience holds. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Life is very short. Let’s have some fun, laugh a lot, celebrate and most of all… let everyone you care about know that you love them. And don’t forget to be good to yourself along the way."<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
