I'm not sure I understand what you mean with 'mix'. The cairo contexts we use are not accessible to your app (they are kept internal to libgdiplus). You should be able to use Mono.Cairo without any problems, assuming you're not trying to draw on Winforms' windows. That's a no-no, since you don't have access to the X drawables you'd need to setup a cairo context. The proper way to do that is to use System.Drawing, which is compatible with Winforms. Whenever you want to draw on a window, you override OnPaint, and as part of the events, you get a System.Drawing graphics context With that context you can use any System.Drawing method to draw whatever you need.
Maybe a description of what exactly it is you are trying to do would help.

Hi there, I am trying to mix Cairo and WinForms, however I don't get it ;-) Is this possible at all? A very basic example would be enough.
