Val here, and I had the distinct pleasure of reuniting Armin with his artist friend, Trung Cao. Trung and Armin met in the day of conversation boards specializing in art. Now these conversational threads have reinvented themselves. as groups on Facebook or other social media platforms. Who knew after all those years we would have a wonderful opportunity to interview Trung.
Trung lives and creates his artwork in the Bay Area of California. He specialize in oil and graphite and is inspired by the grandeur of nature and the complexity of man. Being a refugee who dealt with a traumatic immigration at a young age to the United States from Vietnam, he tells us that his art often takes the theme from the classical story form, "A Hero's Journey". Imagination, attention to details, and respect for representative realism shape his artistic aesthetic. He works in portraiture, wildlife, fantasy art, and landscapes.
As a professional artist who also has a scientific career, he can pick and choose his artistic projects with freedom. He touches on the fact that artists who have jobs that support day to day living should really have gratitude for that income. It gives artists time to concentrate on their individual passions without having to sell out.
Trung is also passionate about art nonprofits and serves on the board as Vice President of Blue Lines Art in Roseville, California. You will hear Trung, talk about the importance of artists establishing relationships with others through their art and also their participation and sharing of their skills with art nonprofits. Children in particular have so much to gain by adding art into their lives.
Enjoy this episode! We are honored that Trung spent time with us and truly appreciate his candor and generous spirit in explaining what it means to be an artist in this day and age. Looking forward to keeping up with you, Trung, and happy we could reconnect.
