Nice to meet you!

I’m Jayden An (Duc Huy An), an illustrator originally from Vietnam and currently based in Florida. I love telling stories and developing characters that range from playful and humorous to deeply emotional for young readers. As an Asian immigrant and proud LGBTQIA+ artist, I am passionate about creating illustrations that celebrate the beauty of our differences and amplify voices that are often overlooked.

When I’m not drawing, you'll likely find me in the kitchen cooking my favorite Vietnamese dishes, baking a fresh loaf of focaccia, or making a Brazilian-style carrot cake.

I am open to projects for young readers, including board books, picture books, chapter books, graphic novels, and book covers.
