About
Hi! I'm Trân, or Jun, an illustrator from Vietnam. After graduating with BFA in Graphic Design from HCMC University of Architecture in 2021, I was fortunate to get my first illustration and storyboarding projects fresh out of school. That experience fueled my desire to follow this path.
I would love to collaborate with you on books, children’s books, illustrations, and creative projects! I'm most fond of children's book illustration, and have a love for a gentle, organic and natural style. I find much joy in telling stories beyond the words written and giving life to my creation through expressive colors, movements and expressions. That's why I love painting scenes with many characters, with each having their own thing to do and story to tell. They all come together to make the page so bustling and alive. When I was younger, I thought I would really love to be a performer on stage. I'm not one, yet, but at least with illustrating, I can show a lot of faces when no one is watching.

What else?
I'm a fun-loving cyclist. Being outdoors, in the open space, and amid trees inspires me. Nature is one favorite subject of mine, as shown in my personal projects, such as Wildflowers. Besides, being on a bike for so long should toughen me up, hopefully.
If you still want to hear more behind-the-scenes stories and unfinished projects, you're welcome to my other room.
