Duckie The Duck - Australia based illustrator

Duckie is a Vietnamese illustrator based in Australia whose artwork bridges the traditional and the contemporary, and brings together generations young and old. Rooted in his Asian creative sensibility, and in particular his Vietnamese background, Duckie’s illustrations are rich in visual storytelling, blending folklore with modern art elements to form the next chapter in his cultural heritage.
At an early age, Duckie was captivated by the performers of the Vietnamese operas he attended with his grandmother, and the lavish costumes they wore. Elements of these are recreated in his work – colourful, organic, graphic forms to create fictional worlds replete with dragons, tigers and peacocks where adventurers tread in bright silk robes and maidens wear the traditional áo dài. Clients praise the authenticity and cultural depth of his work. One of Duckie’s favourite influences is James Jean, an artist who also incorporates Asian culture into his work, and he also admires JC Leyendecker for his figurative work. Duckie has a Bachelor of Visual Art from the Australian Catholic University.
