About Me: Hello. I am Nic Nguyen. I am an artist, illustrator, and designer. When I read books as a kid, I remember feeling unsatisfied as an onlooker. I wanted to help tell the story. I wanted to be a part of making it. And although I still have an interest in literature, I am more fascinated with the visual communication of storytelling. I create work that evokes its message as much through its design as through its words.

Fun Fact: When not creating artwork, I enjoy baking cookies, watching foreign films, and reading fiction.
