Artist of the Month - July 2026
Vivien Sun
She loves drawing in her childhood. She started to learn the drawing and the digital illustration in the later time.
Since the year of 2023, she started painting with acrylic and fell in love with it. The bold, loosing and impressionist paintings are her favorite.
Besides the techniques in the acrylic painting, she keeps exploring on the various artistic expressions in the different genres.
