Artem Chigvintsev says his bank account took a huge hit — losing $100,000 in income -- after he was arrested for domestic violence against his estranged wife Nikki Garcia (Bella).
According to new court docs, obtained by TMZ, Artem says he was still a working dancer despite Nikki's claims to the contrary after he lost his gig on "Dancing With The Stars." Artem says he regularly picked up dance jobs on Saturdays and Sundays, and each project would last 20 weekends.
