I’m participating in #lpstober over on IG and thought I’d share here too. Today’s prompt is Costume. For this prompt I used my dog Otter in a witch’s costume because we dressed her up as a witch last year at 8 weeks old. Enjoy!

I have been trying to draw everyday and been inspired by toys. I have been consistently daily doodling for 8 days! Can you tell what toy has inspired me?

It’s summer, and the perfect time to horse around! - it’s #KidLitArtPostcard day! My name is Nikki Boetger, and I love illustrating curious animal characters with bold, playful expressions perfect for board books and early readers. Rep’d by The Lemonade Illustration Agency.

Happy 5 year Anniversary to #kidlitpostcardart Day! As a girl I loved animals. This piece is in honor of an illustrated book report I did as a 5th grader, about Macaws. My teacher that year was the one that really allowed me to put art into my homework. He helped me turn that talent into a passion.
