At age two, she scribbled on walls with crayons. At age five, she played with Lego and received her first paint and easel set. At age seven, she discovered van Gogh, Gauguin and Picasso in the Junior Britannica encyclopaedia series and learnt about art movements thanks to an Encarta CD-ROM. The rest is history.
Having a penchance for the arts since childhood, Austvina Phan undertook studies in design at the College of Fine Arts, graduating with a Bachelor of Design. She likes to work with traditional mediums such as ink, charcoal, conte and watercolours; as well as dabbling in other areas such as mixed media, sewing, photography and digital sketching
Austvina is fascinated by the depths of the imagination and the connection that art and design has with history and memory and how they inform us about the past, present and possible future.
She loves getting her hands dirty, perusing art supply stores and bookshops at leisure, browsing through books and the Internet for inspiration and losing herself in her work while listening to some good music.
