Monica Rivera,
Painter

Monica Rivera is an artist and illustrator from Upstate NY now living in the lovely city of Portland, Oregon. Working primarily with traditional mediums such as watercolor and gouache, Monica's illustrations tell the story of her inner world.

Monica's identity as a neurodivergent and queer latina deeply influences her art, adding layers of complexity and richness to her work. The vibrant landscapes of the Pacific Northwest fuel her creativity, while her exploration of ancient symbols reflects her profound connection to the natural world.
