Gaze and Graphite is the creative brand of Pittsburgh artist Monica Matthews, who transforms emotion and memory into surreal, symbolic art. Working in graphite, digital illustration, acrylic paint, and mixed media, Monica creates pieces that reflect the quiet stories we all carry, where eyes become mirrors, cities become dreams, and beauty hides in the unseen. Her collections, including Borrowed Moments, Mindscapes, and the Pittsburgh-inspired Brewburgh Series, explore themes of reflection, identity, and connection. Her artwork is available as fine art prints and select designs are featured on mugs, coasters, and other handcrafted goods that bring art into everyday life. Through Gaze and Graphite, Monica hopes her work invites viewers to pause, feel, and see beyond the surface.
