150 - Brian Hoang - Artist
Manage episode 328356125 series 2911848
Brian was born in Vietnam a few years after the war ended. At an early age, he and his parents left and spent about 6 months in a refugee camp before relocating to Canada. As a kid, his dad would often pose his He-Man action figures and draw them. Seeing how his dad was able to take a real-life object and turn it into a drawing, Brian was inspired. This was something he wanted to be able to do so he became that kid that would draw at the back of the class.
He eventually got into and graduated from the Interpretive Illustration program at Sheridan College in Oakville, ON where he would meet my future wife.
After years of working a day job while only doing art on the side, he went full-time into art in 2014. While his earlier work was inspired by the pop culture media he consumed, in recent years he's dedicated all his energy and time into exploring the history and the culture of his Vietnamese heritage through his art.
