Monica Bond is a Los Angeles-based writer and paper artist who draws inspiration from the deepest quiet of nature to the adventure of discovery in bustling Milan, Italy. In any language her message is simple and accessible: be here now.
I am an avid believer that only this current moment is our life - which is why I create my artwork. These passing reflections, channeled through creating, writing, and time spent in nature, help me find and maintain my balance. I would like my pieces to lead as a source of encouragement to find solace in reflection and move beyond self-imposed walls in our lives. My wish is to remind others that maybe the magic isn't in the big moments that we anticipate as life changing, but is actually in the small things - in the acts that we least expect have the ability to change us.
