Hey there!

Below is a collection of a small handful of talented graphic artist and creatives within the greater KC and MO creative community for you to explore and follow at your leisure.

Thaovy  /tha-ow-vē/

@thaovy



Thaovy (she/her) born in Phan Thiết, Vietnam, has spent most of her life growing up in Kansas City, Missouri. She is a first-generation Vietnamese American and is a part of the LGBTQIA+ community.


Thaovy started her career as an artist around the same year as she started her self-love journey and is meshing both into one.

From the struggles that she has overcome, simply from her identity alone, she has created a space called TVWT where minds alike can come together and indulge in self-love through the practice of play, expression, and creation.

Hoping to inspire others to create freely and love deeply - by purchasing a piece of her art or engaging in her episodes, you support the movement of practicing art as a way of building your relationship with self.

From the vibrant landscapes of New Mexico and now calling Kansas City home, the talented artist Dulcinea Herrera embarked on her creative journey since she was a child. Drawing inspiration from her rich blend of Argentinian, Mexican, and Mescalero Apache heritage, she skillfully weaves a visual narrative that celebrates the resilience and strength of people of color.
