About & Contacts.

​

My name is Natalia Nik (Nikulina). I’m an artist and illustrator based in Russia, Moscow.

​

I've always had a passion for art — drawing, painting, and illustrating.
After earning my Master's degree as an artist-stylist (faculty of applied arts in Moscow, 2000), I worked as a graphic designer, art director, and illustrator in an advertising company.  Also, I had a long experience as a freelance in the same fields.

In 2020 I got an MFA degree (Cum Lauder) in illustration (Children's Book Emphasis) at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco.

​

During my art career, I've exhibited my artworks worldwide, participate in exhibitions s and contests. I think it's a huge opportunity to share my art, and It's inspiring me to work further as an artist and illustrator.

​

I love to create charming, cute, and sensitive illustrations. I use a combination of watercolor, color pencils with a slightly digital touch. As well, I love to draw digitally.  My art style can be described as playful, sweet whimsical, and represents an optimistic perspective on life.

​

Now I work on my personal picture book projects but always open to art collaborations as an artist and illustrator.
