About Sean Monaghan

FREELANCE ILLUSTRATOR: Storyboarder / Character Designer / Concept Artist (2013-2018) Generally works short-term projects, but strives to develop lasting relationships with employers and art directors. Building and maintaining a strong network is just as important as the creation of a product. Well-versed in working both short and long projects with small, intimate teams of artists. Heavily in favor of collaborative thinking and brainstorming. Like the 4th quarter Tune Squad, I'm big on teamwork; the more back-and-forth, the better. Stylistically melds exaggerated reality and cartoonish elements, drawing inspiration from artists past and present. Proficient in both digital and analog media. I live in a lousy apartment in New York and like to see that grime seep into artwork when possible. Beautiful bodies and ugly old faces, and stories we can all relate to.
