I’m an artist based in Hamilton, Ontario. Through digital and traditional painting I love to bring worlds, characters and landscapes to life. Nature is one of my biggest inspirations and when I’m not drawing I can often be found getting lost in the outside world. I’m very passionate about my work and I’m often filling sketchbooks with my ideas. I work in a variety of styles and I enjoy creating images that fit clients’ needs within a timely fashion. If you have any questions regarding my work, feel free to e-mail me at michelle.b.moniz@gmail.com
