Greetings #KidLitArtPostcard Day!

Have you ever planned an outdoor project
or event that was weather-dependent?

He is running, carrying a pumpkin light (for safety) in one hand and his pumpkin-shaped bucket full of candy is his other hand, while looking over his shoulder. The background is a spooky nighttime desert scene featuring cacti, distant hills and large full moon. ©Laurie Brosius 2025

Catching blue crabs with Grandmom is one of my fondest childhood memories. We'd catch a half bushel in a couple hours. Good eats! 🦀

I loved growing up in a time before handheld mini computers took over the world.

Anyone else out there play marbles in their youth?

If I sit down to draw and don’t have a pre-determined subject matter, I usually default to bears and cats. Angry bees are kinda fun to draw, too. 🐝

Happy 2025! #KidLitArtPostcard

I stumbled across an old Sears Wishbook recently. It brought back memories of my brother & I picking out the toys we wanted from Santa. One year we got matching orange bikes.🧡

Promo postcard for kidlit illustrator/author Laurie Brosius featuring a smiling young boy riding an orange bicycle. There is a playing card attached to the front wheel so it hits the spokes and makes a sound like a motorcycle. While drawing this, the song “Ride Like the Wind” by Christopher Cross was playing in my head. © Laurie Brosius

A Christmas themed promo postcard for illustrator, author, graphic designer Laurie Brosius featuring a frantic elf running through Santa’s workshop carrying Santa’s outfit. He’s heading for the dry cleaners. The workshop has a work bench with tools, a train and a doll on it. Above the work bench is a window with a bluebird and a reindeer peering in. Outside it is snowing — trees are visible in the distance. A sign on the wall indicates that there are just 20 days left before Christmas Day. And lastly, there is a decorated Christmas tree in the workshop with a cat sleeping contentedly underneath. © Laurie Brosius 2024

I don’t have any pics, but my favorite item of clothing as a kid was a pair of purple denim shorts with a fringe and they had lavender color back pockets.
I drew a mouse wearing them earlier this year. 🐭💜
