Bhagya Madanasinghe grew up in a Tea Estate surrounded by undulating mountains to the hilly side of Sri Lanka. Her childhood was always filled with sun, green and mist. She went on to study Architecture in the most urban city In Sri Lanka. Her interest in illustrating began when she was able to grab much needed exposure and freedom while practicing as a professional architect.

Her main inspiration is her childhood which she spent with her sister and brother.
