I am an illustrator and picture book author from Vietnam. My work includes personal paintings, pictures books and other illustration projects. My inspiration stems from my own stories, dreams and imagination, as well as my love for exploring the beauty and cultures around the world. Accompanied by my beloved cats, I find peace in my small studio, and I also cherishes the tranquility of nature.
