About Me

Hieu is an emerging Australian artist who goes by the alias kelogsloops. His watercolor paintings often depict female portraiture, with anime influences from his upbringing and drawing inspiration from surreal and fantasy art styles. He paints with the intention of capturing fleeting moments, portraying his figures suspended in time. Since beginning on his artistic career, he has worked and operated by his motto, “Be right back, chasing dreams.” 

Hieu started drawing as a child, often losing himself in his sketchbooks. He went on to paint digitally in 2009 after receiving his first Wacom tablet. In his final years of high school, he began experimenting with watercolour. Consequently, he fell in love with the medium and has defined himself as both a watercolour & digital artist ever since.

Hieu currently exhibits his work in galleries and maintains a presence on social media. He intends to continue his current projects and pursuits, hoping to one day have his own studio and teach.
