Wazza Pink (Illustrator)

Wazza was born in Ha Noi, Viet Nam and still lives there now. She has loved to read comics and picture books ever since she was a kid, and was also really excited to mimic the styles of her favorite comic book artists. So a long time ago, she began her dreams of becoming an illustrator. She kept practicing and learning from inference through books, the internet, and her artist friends. The freelancer environment improved and completed her art style. She still has a long way to go, but she hopes her work can one day inspire and motivate people to a better life.

She likes to listen to some music while working. It helps her focus, and some tunes really inspire great ideas for her art pieces. She love cats and now has two kitties at home. She believes that having a pet is truly a way to perfect your life.
