About The Artist
|
A little introduction about myself. My name is Thi Nguyen, but mostly known as Houdi, the Asian American artist on either tumblr or twitter. I am an illustrator who likes to draw pretty hair and clothes. And maybe when the stars align, I make a comic or two. I enjoy making illustration books and designing costumes! I love the tangibility of fabric and often find ways to create my own little charm or pin designs.
I've been independently publishing comics and illustration books since 2014, as well as working on book covers and other freelance design works. Browse below or within my resume for more in depth information! For work inquiries, you can email me via tnguyen02@alumni.risd.edu |
