About

Cam Anh Nguyen is an illustrator based in Vietnam. She tells stories through paintings. She has experience with different art materials but found her soul in watercolor. Calm and Loving is what others would describe her illustrations.

Since 2015, Cam Anh has accomplished various illustration projects in VN, the US, and the UK, from book covers, children’s comics, character designs, and private commissions and commercial designs. She is extremely fond of traditional-culture-inspired projects. Animal is also her interest. She has been a social activist for animal rights and contributed to many non-profit projects, advocating and raising awareness about animal rights through the arts.

Cam Anh is also an art instructor, sharing her expertise in illustration on Youtube, her personal blog, and workshops.

In her free time, she finds joy in drawing comedic short comics of daily life. Her narrative is towards her family, friends, and a squad of three cats – Phiu Thi, Cozy, and Sún.
