To be an artist anywhere, you have to embrace your surroundings and take in the observational truth. The art that I create is reflective of my Hmong roots but is also encompassing of the people, the community and the cultures of where I live. In the last twenty years of calling Minnesota my home, I am grateful that I’ve had the opportunity to tell stories through my art via murals, park signs and publications. In quieter times, I love capturing nature, recipes and drawing studies in my sketchbook. Sometimes I think of it as visual record keeping but it’s also empowering when others can connect with it and that’s the beauty of art.
