About
Deven (Devil)
there’s some thing pretty cathartic about doing art in the late hours of the night. It’s a time for you to explore your thoughts and feelings uninterrupted by the busy noise of the day. Creating at night is a time that is truly yours. A time when you can sort out your thoughts and all the mess going on in your life. All the while creating something out of the time spent self-reflecting and problem solving. Carpe Noctem!
i am a Vietnamese American born and raised in Southern California. I have been doing art for 20+ years. I have memories of me as young as 5 years old holding a paint brush and pencil. Coming from a Typical Asian family I was required to go to college (or pay rent) and so I got my degree in Studio Arts, hahahah. When times are tough and confusing art has always been my constant. A constant that I have been able to forge for myself. Art always.
My artistic inspiration come from many aspect of life such as Nature, dark occult subject matter, skateboarding, Music, Video games, Movie/TV Shows, the list goes on. Stylistically I am very influenced by the tattooing world, specifically Neo Traditional art and Black work. I am so enamored by those styles and the tattooing world that I have dedicated myself to seeking out an apprenticeship.
