Hanoi 1960s – Teaaa

digital painting / illustration / postcard

hanoi 1960s

A WIP collection of digital paintings called Hanoi 1960s explore and recreate Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, during the 1960s. This is one of the side projects I’m working on during the final unit of my master’s degree. After learning and experimenting with a number of workflows and techniques, I came to the conclusion that while painting is still my preferred medium, I also enjoy using mixed media to give my paintings, whether they be traditional or digital, additional depth.

process: composition, moodboard, draft sketches

1960s images of Hanoi as references of perspectives, camera angles and city scenes

Examples turn abstract ideas into situations that readers can inspect, compare, and remember. In technical writing, a strong example does more than illustrate a definition: it shows how a principle behaves under realistic conditions and where its limits begin. A classroom test example should therefore include the relevant data, the expected method, and a clear explanation of why the answer follows, rather than presenting a bare result. Examples are also valuable in product design, where contrasting versions reveal how small changes in layout, wording, or sequence affect user decisions. The most effective explanations usually move from a simple case to a more complex one, giving readers enough structure to recognize the pattern without treating every situation as identical. When examples are accurate, varied, and closely tied to the subject, they support judgment instead of replacing it, helping people transfer an idea to problems they have not seen before.
