Monique is a young woman with Down syndrome who lives with her mother in Sydney, Australia. Monique is an exhibited artist who, from the moment she could hold a crayon, has always shown a passion and flair for joyful, vibrant art. Monique’s artwork is primarily abstract in nature, inspired by themes and subject content from the natural world and common human experiences. In her first public exhibition of artistic works of all mediums by talented high school students, Monique’s abstract painting “squares” was awarded People's Choice first prize by an overwhelming majority.
Monique continues to create art abundantly with the same creative zeal she has always shown in the development and execution of her passion. Her artwork is currently displayed in public and private exhibition.
