This week In Focus is featuring the art of Patrick Monkel – a 30-year-old freelance graphic designer who owns The Monk Studio in The Netherlands. Patrick studied Multimedia Engineering in Amsterdam, and has now been working freelance for 7 years. He continues to work freelance, whilst also working at Talmon a Dutch online storytelling site. There he works for some high-profile clients such as Dunlop and ING.

Patrick says: “Passion is the word for me when it comes to design. I love all kinds of design and (digital) art. In my daily work I try to keep evolving my style and am eager to learn about new things. I think it's good to switch lanes / try new things once in a while. This keeps my job interesting and above all: fresh and inspiring.”
