Hey! I'm Monica - but please, call me Monix!

I'm a student, engineer, scientist, and non-stop learner with a deep draw towards creativity and adventure. I'm also an illustrator!

I have been developing skills in Adobe Photoshop for over ten years, but now I work exclusively in Clip Studio Paint.

I focus most of my work on visualizing emotions, capturing events, and symbolizing with plants, animals, and objects. To me, the most important parts of a piece are story, energy, and connection.

I previously worked with Dante Shepherd of Surviving the World to create educational comics for students of various ages. You can find our work at Science the World. I have also illustrated comics for the journals of Chemical Engineering Education and Matter!

I specialize in speed painting, comic illustration, landscapes, and animal portraiture. More information on what I can and cannot draw can be found in my commission policy.

Thank you for stopping by!
