Monique Lavoie
About me
Monique Lavoie is a visual artist based in Quebec City. Her work sensitively explores urban landscapes, architecture, and floral scenes. With a bachelor's degree in architecture, she draws heavily on this discipline, which dictates both her choice of subjects and her working techniques. Her dual technical and artistic background allows her to create works that combine rigor and originality.
My artistic approach
Her practice has been enriched over the years by producing works resulting from learning various artistic techniques and new mediums, notably from renowned watercolourists who are members of the Canadian Society of Painters in Water Colour.
The artist is also an adept of urban sketching and life drawing. This discipline has allowed her to develop a keen observation of people, objects and everyday scenes. It enables her to capture the essence of her city and her travels through figurative works. Now fully dedicated to her art, she continues her exploration by creating figurative and stylized works. She is formalizing her approach and perfecting her visual signature.
For her creations, she uses watercolor and mixed media on paper or wood panel.
