Monica Hokeilen

I believe that the beauty and hope in this world outweighs the despair and hate, and that I can share this optimism through my art. I feel passionately about climate change and related issues, and my art provides an avenue to have conversations about these topics in ways that we can connect. Through my oil on canvas paintings of landscapes and wildlife of the western United States where I live, and of places in the world where I have traveled, I seek to reflect the world beyond our daily lives and to remind the viewer of the broader scope of life on Earth. And, occasionally, to think about all that exists in our solar system beyond the rocky shores of our own planet.
