onica is 22 years old and was born in Chihuahua, where she is currently pursuing a degree in Visual Arts. She favors traditional illustration rather than digital but she doesn’t write off experimenting with digitalism. Her most constant technique is watercolors, but she also loves color pencils, oils and Chinese ink. Monica defines her work in three words: simple, direct and feminine. “I always try to create new stuff and to improve my work; I don’t like to get stuck in the same style. I’ve started 2013 with regained strength to work and realize many projects. Many have asked me why I tend to paint eyes and lips. I just like the fact that by observing a set of eyes or lips you can interpret many things. I also like to paint women because it’s easier to experiment with tonality and form. I haven’t been doing illustrations for a long time; I started doing it out of boredom and it has slowly become a very important part of my life”.

ónica tiene 22 años, nació en Chihuahua, México y actualmente cursa la carrera de Artes Visuales en la misma ciudad, prefiere la ilustración tradicional a otras como la digital, aunque no descarta empezar a trabajar un poco más en la misma. La técnica que más utiliza es la acuarela, pero también dice amar trabajar con lápices de color, oleos, tinta china etc., Mónica define su trabajo en tres palabras: sencillo, directo y femenino. “Siempre trato de hacer cosas nuevas y de mejorar, no me gusta quedarme estancada en lo mismo o en un mismo estilo. Empecé el 2013 con muchas ganas de trabajar y de realizar muchos proyectos. Muchos me preguntan porque pinto tantos ojos o bocas y es porque me gusta el hecho de que con tan solo ver unos ojos o una boca se pueden interpretar muchas cosas. También me gusta pintar mujeres porque me es más fácil experimentar con las tonalidades y formas. No tengo mucho tiempo dedicándome a la ilustración, empecé haciéndolo por ocio y terminó convirtiéndose en algo que formaría parte de mi vida”.
