ARTIST PROFILE

Hello, my name is Bobby K. Trinh and I currently reside in the bay area in Northern California. I am originally from Burbank which is located in sunny Southern California.

I have spent the majority of my life interested in artistic works that range from photography to music. I have always had a passion for creative work regardless of the medium at hand. While attending college for music I inadvertently explored art history. Since then I switched majors and put down my music to pursue a more rewarding career in the creative industry of graphic and multimedia design.

Fast forward to 2008, I have graduated from California State University, Hayward with both my Bachelors and Masters Degree in Art and Multimedia. I personally tend to stay with the simple yet clean design. “Sometimes less is more” however, I have been able to adapt my skills to fit the needs of the scope of the project.

Featured in this site you will find my library of works that range from illustration, print design, web design, animation, etc.. Most of the work you will find here will be from my own personal works that were done purely for educational purposes.
