Had a lovely afternoon chat with 29-year old digital artist, Khoa Le yesterday!

My first thought was — I should have met her months ago so I could have recommended her for Saigon Singles!  She is so pretty!  But I later found out that she is “unavailable”! Hehe!

This young artist is an art editor, has published some 5 children’s picture books, and has done CD covers for musicians.  She is one busy lady.

I instantly felt comfortable talking to her and it continues to amaze me that I haven’t met a Vietnamese artist I didn’t like.  For some reason, they all exude quiet confidence.  They’re passionate about their work but I don’t sense any yabang.  They’re all so very nice!

You have got to check out Khoa Le’s artworks.  See them here: http://khoale.daportfolio.com/.  Hers are fantastical illustrations immersed in strong colors, curves, lines, and with great attention to texture.

Beauty in the Beast

Really love her work!
