Hello! Welcome to my portfolio. My name is Nicki Utecht and I am a 23 year old, 2D animator and character designer based in Milwaukee, WI. I have an associates degree in 2D Animation from the Milwaukee Area Technical College and I recently graduated with my bachelors in Film and Animation from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in May of 2022. As of now, I'm currently looking for jobs in my field.

 

Besides animating, I love character design and drawing and painting both digitally and traditionally. Creating characters and being able to place them in an environment to bring them and their story to life is one of my favorite things to do and I’m happy to show that through my artwork. Outside of art, I enjoy cooking and baking, spending time with my friends and  gecko, playing video games, watching cartoons, and singing.
