My name is Nikki Shoemaker.
I grew up drawing in the front covers of my coloring books and on the back of
paper placemats in restaurants. I did well in art classes throughout school and
was encouraged to take it to the next level and apply for art school.
I graduated in 2001 from Columbus College of Art and Design and walked away
wanting to create art in the children’s market.
I live in South West Ohio, near where I grew up and I am married to a wonderful
man named Jacen. We have three beautiful girls, Ananke,
Kaya (they are Alaskan Huskies)
and Allie (a tabby cat).
