hi, i’m irl too

Hi! I’m Nicole Ruggiero and I’ve been making 3D art since 2016, and digital art since I was a kid. I was originally inspired by video games, the internet, and manga. Most of my work now is about community and tech and still takes a lot of influence from what originally inspired me! I’m big on nostalgia, too. I currently live in NY with my partner and two cats. 🐈🐈‍⬛ Oh, and below is a more professional bio if you want to know about clients and exhibitions and things. c:
