Project in Progress!



Hey everyone!

Long time, NO POST!

I apologize for that, but I have been VERY busy with lots of crazy things including 
the current project I am working on.

After over a year, the first product is on store shelves and I can reveal information!!

Meet the Learnalots!
They are 8 characters that will help making learning special subjects fun through multiple products.
(L to R: Sofie, Leo, Kit, Scout, Piper, Zak, Flora and Bo)

The first product on shelves NOW (Sam's and Costco across US)
are giant floor pad activity books.
There is one for Preschool, Kindergarten, 1st Grade and a Ready for Reading Book.

If you go into a Sam's of Costco, go look in the book section and give me a shout.
You can find me on Facebook - Nikki Boetger Illustrations
Twitter - NikkiLBoetger
or my blog - Nikki Boetger Illustrations!

I am keeping a giant map of LAL Sightings. So far, friends have found in Washington, Utah, Montana, Kentucky, Michigan, North Carolina and Ohio!!! I would love to add YOUR town/state to my map!!!

Enjoy!

Gunther the Underwater Elephant

I have posted this news a few times, but wanted to share it with the Picture Bookies Showcase.
Gunther the Underwater Elephant is at the printers. I should have my copies about the same time the book is released.  That would be around September 15.  It is especially exciting for me because although I have illustrated over 20 books, this is the first one I have written and illustrated.  Once the reviews are out I will know if little Gunther will sink or swim *:)   There will be giveaways once the book is released.

Open for comments

The Picture Bookies Showcase is going to experiment with comment moderation. This will allow visitors to comment on the work shown by the artists who belong to the showcase.   We hope that this will invite more viewers to the site and help promoting the artists who participate on a regular basis.

We will also be adding interviews in the near future as well as a listing of the latest books, awards, and accomplishments of the participating artists.

As of today any new posts will be open for your discussion.
