Denise Nguyen - Book Cover Illustrator

Denise is a Illustrator and studio artist who creates visual pieces in various mediums and forms, whether in digital or traditional. She will receive her BA in studio art from the University of South Florida in 2024. Her main motivation as an artist is her intense interest in optical illusion and its ability to reveal profound principles about perspective and the elements of design. 

Denise chooses to works with a wide variety of mediums such as clay, scratchboard, papier-mâché, and graphite. Although she focuses primarily on drawing and sculpture, she continues to experiment with unconventional ideas to elevate her art and mind. 

Denise has been placed in first and second rankings in art shows as well as had her piece, Pencil (2013), displayed in the office of former Florida senator Garrett Richter in 2014.

She also displayed work in the Dunedin Fine Art Center's Conference of Birds exhibition in 2023 and the HCC Foundation Presidential Showcase in 2019.
