Design & Illustration

A self-taught designer & illustrator who has been working for 25+ years creating everything from branding, advertising, marketing materials, annual reports, brochures, large format trade show displays, packaging and more. EXPERT LEVEL Adobe Program User: Indesign, Illustrator, Photoshop & Acrobat. SKILLED Powerpoint presentation designer. PROFICIENT using WordPress and creating small business websites. I have been an independent contractor for the past 13 years working remote from home.

I ran a dog rescue for 8 years in Mexico. It was a natural transition to start illustrating animals using coloured pencils to create LASTING MEMORIES of your pet. I illustrated for about 2 years and then took 3 years off due to medical issues. I am now getting back in business October 2025! It’s time and I’m excited to work with new clients.

After working with Monique over 8 years, I can confidently say that she is a top-notch designer. Her work is always creative, attractive, and well-thought out. Her creative eye and her great attention to detail mean that I can rely on her no matter the project, be it a poster, package design, brochure, store signage or production work. She is a pleasure to work with and brings great insights to each project. All that, and she is also great with meeting deadlines, making sure work is delivered on-time – every time.

Monique is an incredible artist, able to capture an animal’s personality through her drawings. When my daughter opened the portrait of her dog Paisley on her 25th birthday, she sobbed. I recommend her to anybody wanting a lasting portrait of their beloved animal. 10/10.
