Overview

Hello! My name is Elena and I also go by the artist moniker of "Mismonsta". I truly answer to both :)

I am an illustrator who loves capturing fun caricatures of people, cute pets, and birds. Do you have a bird? I want to draw them!

My main mediums include watercolor, ink, and marker. I also create novel TINY watercolor caricatures (artist trading card size which is 2.5"x3.75" in size) and those are always a hit. Have a cute drawing done quickly, in color, and easy to transport! So much to love!

I look forward to meeting and working with you! Let me know any and all of your questions, I'm so happy to assist!

Have the most beautiful day!

About

Hi I'm Elena! My friends really do call me “Mismonsta” (or “Monsta”) since it's been a nickname of mine for almost 20 years now.

I moved from my hometown of sunny San Diego to Portland, OR in 2011 to obtain my BFA in Crafts and then STAYED. Portland is too cute. Don't get me wrong, I love both cities.

When it’s time to sit and create, my favorites are always watercolor and ink. Forever and always. When my schedule allows me to spend time at the easel I love to use acrylics in my work, though I’m usually on the go with pocket watercolors on hand. And we cannot exclude the substantial library of drawings I've created in Procreate on my iPad. The combination of skills has really helped me strengthen as an artist.

My preferred subject matters are really across the board. I love everything from people and animal portraits to various fandoms, and if I can sneak some bones or spooky things in there, I’m having the absolute BEST time. And mermaids. All the mermaids. I grew up by the ocean and that has never left me.

Fun fact: If you have my business card, "Wigglies" (at the base of the card) is a not to the fact that I am also a professional bellydancer and cabaret performer and producer. 😁💃🏾

Current Professional Memberships:
- SCBWI (The Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators) - I aspire to illustrate children's books and other publications
- ISCA (The International Society of Caricature Artists)

I hope you are having a great day! Thanks for reading!
