About Vivian Nguyen

Thank you very much for visiting my site!

I was born and raised in Arizona – and thanks to encouragement from family and friends, I knew from an early age that I would want to pursue an artistic career. After graduating from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena (BFA w/ honors in Illustration, 2002), I spent about 8 years in the toy design industry. I most recently worked in design & project development at Spin Master Toys in Los Angeles, and I'm very grateful for the experience of being in this field.

My main love for art, however, is still reserved for drawing and illustration – a path in which I'm eager to return. Recent work has been completed for Pasadena Weekly, the United States Air Force Art Program, Chuckwa Gallery, TrinityCare Hospice, various clients...and I'd like to do more. My ongoing personal project – a web comic titled "Little Do They Know" – can be viewed on my blog.

I consider myself versatile in a wide range of styles and media, all the while aiming to learn & grow from each and every experience. Please feel free to contact me anytime with any questions or comments. References and resume can be furnished upon request.

 

Thank you to Mom, Dad, Vu & Rikke, and Uncle Dave for your endless support through school and through life.
