My name is Nika Lemut, and I'm a digital artist originally from Slovenia, but currently based in the Netherlands.

My love for fiction and storytelling has always been a driving force in my life, and after dabbling in art and video throughout my high school years, I studied in the field of digital arts and practices (animation, film, photography), while teaching myself how to also draw and paint on the side. After graduating, I started to build my own freelance business alongside growing my social media. I tried my hand at drawing for children's books, book covers, D&D characters, concept art, portraits, etc., as well as things like art focused Youtube videos and livestreams.

In 2019, I moved to the Netherlands, looking to expand my career. I landed a job as a marketing artist in the mobile game industry for a year, working with animation/motion graphics and graphic design. Since then, I've gone back and forth between freelance illustration and full time creative positions as a way of balancing passion with stability - dabbling with things like painting TTRPG characters and illustrations, game art and book covers, but also with video and animation production for game marketing needs.

I love wearing multiple creative hats and learning new things, though my first passion has always been illustration. I'm looking to build connections and find potential work opportunities that would involve either illustrative work, or combining illustrative work with concepting/animation/motion graphics.
