ABOUT ME

Profilepicture.png

Vivian Truong is a British-Born Chinese Comic Artist
and Illustrator

She studied Computer Animation Arts at Bournemouth University and currently resides in London.

​

A self-taught artist, a natural storyteller, and an avid lover of cartoons and comics, her work focuses on finding the humour in every day situations and exploring fantastical new worlds. 

​

At the start of her journey, she won a runner-up prize for her one shot, "Moving On", for the Japanese Embassy's Manga Jiman contest, and won a prize for the best interactive media for her interactive comic, "I Fell in Love with Evil", at university.

Her first graphic novel City of Dragons: The Awakening Storm is listed as a “Best Graphic Novel of 2021” by ALA and is a worldwide hit amongst reviewers. She is also the artist behind the Wall Street Journal listed self-help book, I Am Fun Size, and So Are You!, and the young adult graphic novel series described as "Naruto but with LGBTQA+ characters", Cooking with Monsters.


She is currently the official World Book Day illustrator and is working on the sequels to City of Dragons and Cooking with Monsters.
