Art by Monique Oliver

Monique creates all of her work by pouring paint from cups, jugs and bowls directly onto a substrate. Layers are then manipulated using a variety of tools and signature techniques. The result is unique, vibrant and energised abstracts fusing organic shapes with intricate patterning.
Monique’s most recent collection “Inner Landscapes” is inspired by the “father” of neuroscience Santiago Ramon y Cajal and his beautiful drawings of the brain. Monique’s interpretations represent the holistic whole of body, mind and spirit and how these are interconnected. The work has been extremely well received and has an ethereal but energetic “bloom-like “quality.
A professional artist and art educator for nearly 5 years, Monique has shown extensively both within the UK and overseas, in private galleries, public buildings and museums. She was shortlisted for the Creates Magazines Emerging Artist Prize 2019 and this year has been the recipient of funding from Arts Council England. Her work has sold into private collections all over the world.
Monique describes herself as being “obsessed with paint behaviour” and is presently working with a global brand to develop a range of products for the fluid art community. She also delivers private acrylic pouring lessons from a dedicated workshop, with an emphasis on pouring as an art therapy and in May 2020 launched an online paint pouring course to rave reviews which she calls “Fluid Art Masterclass” or the “FAM”.
