Meet the artist #17

Our Dec. 12 Winter Celebration is tomorrow! (More info and registration here.) Get ready for the fun with more mini-profiles of the SCBWI-WWA artists featured at that event at the Washington State Convention Center. Or check them ALL out online here. See you soon!

Why did you choose to submit your particular piece of art?
Tiger's in Trouble! is one of my favorite pieces, and one I really wanted to share. And really, who wouldn't want to see a tiger painting the town red (and blue, and green, and pink, and yellow...)?

What does being part of SCBWI mean to you?
Being part of SCBWI is being part of a fantastic, supportive community. It's great to know that when I have questions, SCBWI's wealth of information and people willing to help are there.

What is your favorite picture book from childhood?
My favorite book when I was small was The Monster at the End of This Book by Jon Stone and Michael Smollin. It's still a favorite book, even now that I'm big!

Fun fact: Ask Nicole about steampunk knitting books. Learn more, and see more images, on STQRY here.

*excluding only those lazy bones or privacy freaks who don't answer our email questions, of course. We love them anyway.
