A natural-pigment R&D initiative translating phytochemistry into microplastic-free art materials for Vietnamese heritage conservation, safer creative practice, and community learning.
My love for drawing began in childhood, but the defining turning point came during a
hands-on folk art workshop.
Printing and coloring my first Đông Hồ painting, I realized that reproducing heritage art is far more than applying color to Dó paper. Every woodblock engraving, natural pigment, and color composition embodies deep cultural layers. This elegance inspired me to dive into every stroke with a burning dream: bringing Đông Hồ art closer to the youth and sharing its beauty with the world.

To bring botanical pigments into daily learning, I developed the compact, non-toxic
Mộc Lam herbal crayon set designed for children. This journey reached unique spaces: from the highlands of Thai Nguyen, where ethnic minority children printed their very first traditional paintings.

Through this initiative, I hoped to spark their curiosity and connect them with our shared cultural roots. Seeing their eyes light up as they printed their very first vibrant folk paintings was deeply rewarding - a moment that reinforced my belief in the power of art to inspire and preserve heritage.
