Update (04/2024): Hi, it's Minh! I am currently redesign this website to best represent my skillset beyond artistic crafts and enhance the visual design of it as well as accessibility for my diverse audience. Please stay tuned through following my social media account.
With lots of love and appreciation, Minh the Artease.

I make arts to tell stories about fascinating things.

Welcome to my portfoflio - a body of arts that speaks the truest to my artistic skills and vision. In these works, I embody the creative conversation between the human artist and her medium through using continuous doodles to shape chaotic harmonies - a state where cluttered thoughts join together and begin to make aesthetic sense.

I also take a special interest in humanistic features that serve as the primary interface for meaningful social communication, specifically faces. My works then weaving together faces and lines, in combination with flat color blocks, to depict human-centered stories that fascinates me - an artist who is curious about the world - emotionally, culturally, and visually.

Sketch journals are where I dabble into more interdisciplinary expressions of art. I create these entries when I'm bored or traveling & exploring new countries. Adding artifacts such as fine tickets (oops), a bandage wrapper, or a local event flyer creatively, these books became my treasured diary of experiences that could hardly be relived with just one single medium.

I also use animatic - a preliminary version of an animation production - to tell my fictious stories. These works are presented as a course-final showreel or proof of concept for a digital product, campaign, or scientific idea. More are in the making and soon to come.

Lately, photography. I held up a camera for 2 months to complete my minor elective. This medium helps me become a better observer and use frames to contain stories.

I realize my love for doing portrait photography by the end of the elective course. Until later, we'll get to photograph some more.
