        With a short note on the aspect of the work contributors: The love images that I have done is bring a lot of meaning to everybody. I choose a human heart instead of using a heart icon. The viewer can feel the heart is really alive. The red liquid contained within is giving life to the bouquet of roses. The presence of a bouquet of roses is a testament to true love. Sacrifice, save, heal and help people to survive. It strengthens people, nourishes them and helps resolve conflicts, and has done so much more for centuries, globally. Visible expressions for the eternity of love are red, roses and a passionate heart.

Short Biography

        My name is Quynh Le and I am an Illustrator and painter, creative, and living in Fort Collins, Colorado with my family. I have my own studio at home. It is just a laptop and on Wacom to help me to do my work. Most of the time my painting is relative to the anime, cartoon, and game characters. Sometimes, I want to improve my drawing skills. I will reference material online and paint it. 
        I focus on picking up the colors and the perspective of the image. My aim is to help viewers see the diversity of colors. There's no right or wrong color, and there's no wrong with opposite colors. Painting and colors bring me peace and enthusiasm inside my soul. It is open wide my world makes me every time very excited to explore new things.

Artist’s Statement

        I use paintings as a means to convey my feelings and express my personality through each stroke. That is easy to see through the expression of colors and characters that I want to present on the painting. My goal is to paint pictures that bring a new world, new beginnings, new opportunities and remarkable stories behind it.

        My image revolves mainly around objects and habitats, this desire is partly due to my curiosity about what will be hidden behind. Create art in candid moments in everyday life. The contrast between the day and the night, the white and the black doesn't quite bring out the excitement in my art. I like to add or remove necessary and unnecessary details so that it can bring out the things and events that are currently going on. Lately I've been using materials to practice muscle strokes. That will make it better for me to accurately scale those objects. Items such as fruit, cake and tea, etc are good examples of good specimens commonly used for practice by artists. It allows me to improve my eye focus and brain analysis to determine the color and proportions of the object.

        My style is heavily influenced by Wayne Thiebaud and 木人从众从人舍 (The wooden man obeys the crowd) . One is an American painter and the other is a Chinese painter. Although the two's styles are completely unrelated, it is the use of color by the two that bring about a variety of colors. Both emphasize that color will be expressed more diversely through the way you think and the way you choose colors so that the picture can stand out and shimmer more than the image and monochrome you just show. through the naked eye. Diversity is expressed through yourself, you express your mood through color and express it through your paintings.
