Award-winning artist Monika Livingstone was born in Tampa, Florida, but has spent most of her life on 
the West Coast.  Even at an early age, her artistic tendencies were apparent.  From crayons and water 
colors, to inking and airbrushing, it seems she has always had a drawing or painting tool in her hands.

Although she is mostly known for her airbrush and cartoon work, she is also highly skilled as an 
illustrator and fine artist.  She has been exhibiting her artwork in science-fiction/fantasy convention art 
shows since the early 1980's, and has won several awards in those shows.  Her fresh and unique approach 
has made her a favorite among many fans

Monika rose to national fame in the mid-1980's for her work in the comic book industry.  She has worked 
with several companies including DC, Marvel, Eclipse, Fantagraphics, Viz, and Thoughts & Images on a 
variety of different titles.  One of these titles, "Rufus The Red," was her own creation.
 
Monika has also gained experience designing and painting display signs for Tower Records, and golf 
course benches for Benchcraft. She has done custom work for a variety of clients that includes record 
album covers, advertising art, corporation officers' portraits, banners, corporate magazine covers, truck 
and car detailing, and more.  Her custom airbrushing of T-shirts (and other clothing) has become well 
known not only on the West Coast, but nationally and internationally as well.

With knowledge received from college and private tutoring, as well as years of practical work experience, 
Monika has also given some of her talent back by serving as an instructor for the Multnomah Advertising 
Art School and the National Airbrush Institute Seminar.  She has also given private instruction in 
airbrushing and drawing techniques.

From humor to nature, from fantasy to drama, her dynamic style allows Monika Livingstone to cross over 
between artistic categories.  Sometimes whimsical, often powerful, her work is always first class art.
