Artist of the Day, September 10, 2021: Ahn Nguyen, an Australian emerging painter (#1361)

Ahn Nguyen, Australian emerging painter.

"I was born in Melbourne, Australia and now live and paint from the NSW South Coast, with my partner and four children; nestled between the escarpment and the sea in Thirroul, after living in Canberra, Scotland, Finland and Sydney.

Drawing and painting has been a core part of my life for the past 20 years (since girlhood!) This culminated in some form in 2015 whilst on maternity leave with my second child and I started to take portrait commissions and opened an Etsy Shop (www.etsy.com/shop/msanhpaints), offering other original artworks and giclee fine art prints. I have no formal Fine Arts education and emotionally, it was a large step for me to do this and share my work. But no regrets!

Typically I use acrylics on paper or canvas, but I also enjoy oil and watercolour; drawing, of course, with oil stick and soft pastels; monoprints & painting on ceramics."
