# About me

I am a commercial artist with around two decades' worth of experience, with much of that time having been spent working in the video games industry and about seven years as a self-employed freelancer. Prior to all that I worked in a design studio, and going back further still I was taking on paid art commissions as young as the age of 14.

Some people know me as 'her wot draws'. Mostly harmless, I spend my life taking leaps forward and hoping to land in big piles of relevance. I consider myself to be yet another example of something.

Current Residence: South, UK
Favourite genre of music: RAWK!!! XD
Favourite photographer: Dark Romantics Photography
Favourite style of art: anime style, painterly CG
Operating System: Windows 7
MP3 player of choice: My phone
Wallpaper of choice: always changing... I'm a fussy bugger. ^-^;
Favourite cartoon character: Always a toughie... right now it's probably Chococat (Sanrio) or Marvin Martian
Personal Quote: Let's go inky! Tsubabababa!

Niki-UK In reply to Kaviix [2014-03-04 09:55:14 +0000 UTC]

That’s just one job among many that I've taken on... my job is as a freelance artist/designer so I am happy to work on all sorts of art jobs.
Right now though I am taking a little time out to look after my new baby. It's hard to find time to do art for myself right now, let alone other people. But I hope that I can resume my freelancing when I get a little more time to work again.

wow O: when.. some.. a.. company asks to do a drawing you do and get payed? but what if no company asks u and u would lose money and.. lose house and poor baby!
i bet is hard to have a baby :/
i was thinking for my future to be something like that :3 but not have family it gives too much work :c

but... yeah be happy!

Niki-UK In reply to 1980goldclick [2013-09-23 19:17:04 +0000 UTC]

Ooh, that's difficult! But I like Farex Lore, the Arconites and Talos... also, a type of monster that didn't make it into the final game; the Scorchions.
