Maria NicolaiI'm an intermediate artist who is from the Yukon Kuskokwim Delta of Alaska. My preferred medium is digital, though sometimes I dabble in paints and pencil. My style is eclectic, as I'm still learning.
A goal of mine is to embody the culture of my heritage, Alaskan Native Yup'ik, through depictions of masks and more well known folktales. A large body of my work is cartoonish, so someday I dream of making a children's book with stories I heard growing up. |
