Quyen Dinh was born in Vietnam in 1977 amidst social and political
oppression. Being a part of the refugee boat people generation, Quyen
and her family left Vietnam and eventually found a permanent home in the
suburbs of Southern California in the early 1980's. Quyen started to
show talent for creativity early on; however, without the neccessary
familial support growing up, she left art behind along with any kind of
aspiration. It wasn't until 2004 when a simple painting created as a
gift re-ignited her passion for art. Painting, she realized, quenched a
thirst that no other work could. Since then, Quyen has returned to art
with much vigor and has produced a collection of paintings heavily
influenced by tattoo art and popular culture. Today, she works out of
her home in Orange County, California.
