Drawing, graphics, reading, dancing,movies working out, walking at the park,playing World of Warcraft....Here is some of my artwork...
Music
Well as you can tell I like a wide variety of music. I can do without country though!!! HA HA HA I love 80's, rock, alternative, classical, r&b, techno, pop, hip hop, reggae, salsa,merengue,disco.
Anything and everything horror!!!! Hell yes!!! Other than that Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Action/Adventure, thrillers, some drama, comedies, I have to be in the mood to see a romance movie...other than that most of them are unrealistic and boring to me. Oh and did I mention Horror!!! LOL
Television
Smallville and Supernatural is all I will watch now. I don't watch much television anymore
Books
Stephen King is my favorite. I also like Dean Koontz
Greetings to all the great artistic masses out there, you have reached The Official My Space Page of “The Art of MONICA DELGADO!” I am originally from New York City and have had the luxury of calling Sunny Orlando, Fl. my home for the last 26 years. Since as far back as I could remember drawing has always been a symbiotic part of who I am never wavering. I am pretty sure I was born with a paint brush in my hand. I spent the majority of my school years captivated and drawing as much fantasy art as I could such as unicorns, dragons, and mermaids etc. Of course as any childhood passion I found myself falling out of it a bit. Only to be recently recharged and invigorated in the last few years amping up my fantasy style to that of a much darker macabre allure. This is very exhilarating as I continue to embrace this and grow as an Artist. I would have to say that several factors have played a great part in developing me as an Artist. For the most part I am a Self Driven, Self Motivated, and Self Taught Artist in the area of Commercial Art & Design. However, I continue to learn everyday though. The day that you stop allowing yourself to grow/learn as a person and an artist you have allowed your ego to take over. That is something that I keep in perspective a great deal never losing site of who I am.
My traditional style is that of Graphite pencils, Berol Prismacolor pencils, Berol pastels, Berol Prismacolor markers in combination of acrylic with my color penciling. I continue to adapt and learn in those tools also. Other areas that I have grown in creatively are in Web Design and Digital Illustration. Through the years I have realized that I'm not really into web design as much although I am no stranger to Flash, Director and Dream Weaver. Mostly, I appreciate the printed medium of Graphic Design more than web. Adobe Photoshop/Illustrator (all versions) has been an amazing staple in my growth as an artist in the Digital Arts. I am forever grateful to these tools as well as to all the artists out there that have gave me their expertise in their particular strengths to help me grow. Thank you… you all know who you are.

Hi Monica, How have you been? Hope all is well out there. Just want to say thanks for the Add and Support. I'll keep in touch a bit more also, just let me know what's the best way to do that.
You guys have a great Holiday Season and I'll keep in touch.

Greetings Monica. I trust you are doing well. And, all your ventures have been coming along - plans coming together. I would like to approach you for yet another venture. When you're inclined to do so, please stop by my blog area. A few of my original / copyrighted song lyrics are posted. I was wondering if you would be interested in putting your art to my words (being an illustrator to my vision while I would provide interpretations or reinterpretations to your drawings). We wouldn't necessarily have to be in the same room, studio or state for that matter :) I'll tell you more of my plan if it strikes up any interest in your mind (although, I would like to hear back from you regarding this either way). I assure you we could make a worth while & successful collaboration /side business. Anyway in the meantime, take care of yourself, Ms. Delgado. And, I wish you happiness, health & success in everything you do. Peace.
