Monica Acee paints a variety of subjects in watercolor, specializing in human and equine portraits. Using a time-consuming method of layering paint adds depth and luminosity to her work while allowing her to maintain a contemporary feel. The translucent layers, slowly added, help to convey the layers of personality of those depicted in her portraits. To further reveal the character of her subject she often uses complex settings in her paintings. It is the richness of color and attention to detail that sets her work apart.
