Welcome to Monique Craig.com. Here you will find my illustrations as well as information regarding my published horror/sci-fi writings, including excerpts and links to where you can purchase the book (s).

As a novelist and artist, I have the opportunity to utilize both my writing talent and drawing skills via the publishing of my books. I am also a desktop publisher, which allows me total artistic freedom in the creation of my work.

My virtual art gallery is a collection of my mixed media drawings. At this stage of my art career, I work primarily with pen & ink and Photoshop, although many of my older works were done in color pencil and acrylic. I may return to the latter media at some point, but for now I am enjoying the greater flexibility pen & ink and Photoshop have allowed me in my work.

I am greatly influenced by the early twentieth-century surrealist artists René Magritte, Salvador Dalí, and Max Ernst. I am also a major fan of the German Northern Renaissance artist, Albrecht Dürer, and although I am by no means a "master" such as he was, I enjoy the challenge of trying to emulate his engraving techniques via pen & ink.

As an artist, I define myself as someone who is mostly self-taught. I studied art briefly at the Corcoran School of Art in Washington, DC, and took a few courses, here and there while in college. But, due to my other interest, writing, I decided to pursue a degree in journalism and the media arts.

If you think you may be interested in purchasing a signed reproduction of my artwork, or a signed copy of my books, please feel free to contact me.

Enjoy!
