Monique

I met Monique while I was in Zurich and although we didn’t speak much, I knew there was something unconventional about her. After talking with her for awhile I came to learn about her artwork and I was blown away.

On bad days I like to walk in the forest and scream out loud.

I get angry when I’m hungry.

One if my dreams is to live in a place where life is not so arranged like Switzerland.

I want to live with my paintings, my atelier and my dogs, everything in one big place.

I never think before I paint, I begin with a point or a line and then 8 hours or so later I have a picture painted with my feelings.

I love dogs more than most humans.

I don’t give a fuck that people don’t understand me, it’s my life and I arrange it how I like.

I want to work with people and art from everywhere.

I’m a person who lives now, not in the past, not in the future.

As a child I was very calm and hid my real personality.

I’m very straight forward and I find that most people can’t handle this and think I’m arrogant.

I’m not very ambitious at all and its a thing I hate about myself.

I don’t think everything needs a meaning, it just is what it is.
