Nicole Gustafsson was born and raised in Nebraska. Much of her youth was spent playing in the park across the street from her family home. These outdoor adventures helped form Nicole's love of nature and fueled her imagination. It is this spirit of discovery and adventure that she conveys in her artwork.
Nicole currently lives in Lincoln, Nebraska and works as a freelance illustrator and designer.
5. What are three great ways you’ve found to promote your work and interact with potential customers?
The best way I have found to promote my work is through the Internet. I started a blog when I was in college, and more recently I started a Facebook fanpage and Twitter account. Blogging has been really great for tracking my work and events in my life. I like looking back a year ago and remembering what I did and where I was. Twitter and Facebook have been really beneficial to connecting with others, where as people may be shy to post on my blog. When I update twitter or post new projects to Facebook, minutes later I can have comments and reactions to my work. I have found it very supportive and encouraging.
