Up in the New York City sky.

A baby to hold.
To see her sweet face,
A miracle to behold.
Victoria Azarian was born in New York and currently lives in Brooklyn, NY with her daughter Elle Lusine. The loving journey to motherhood came with ups and downs but as time passed, she knew she was being called to adoption from the land of her ancestors, Armenia, one of the most ancient and historic countries in the world. Her debut book, THREE LITTLE STARS, is a magical story of this journey. Victoria prayed each night on three little stars with the hope of becoming a mother. The moment she met her adopted daughter, she noticed a beautiful birthmark on her back in the same formation as the three little stars she prayed upon in the night sky. It was a sign that her guardian angels heard her prayers. She truly believes that love, not biology is what creates a parent child bond. Victoria is a creative director, an accidental activist, and a practitioner of intuitive healing. She has a knowing that she ignored for years, listening to the whispers of the universe to follow the flow that is her life's journey. A portion of the proceeds will go to aid the children at the Nork Baby Home in Yerevan, Armenia.
Pamela has always enjoyed observing the pure innocence in children and animals. To best facilitate her illustration, especially for children's books, she becomes the eyes, ears, and heart of the child from the inside out. As a student of children's book author and illustrator, Chris Van Allsburg, he encouraged Pamela to capture the peak moments in a story- so that each illustration is an entire tale in itself, full of nuance and imagination. She seeks to capture the essence of life in all her art. Discovery, expansion, awareness, learning.
