TYSON TAN
About
Hi, everyone. I’m Tyson Tan (Tan is my last name). I am a digital artist active since 1999. Drawing is still just my hobby.
My art skills are self-taught. I began drawing by mimicking anime, cartoons, and video games featuring anthropomorphic animals and robots. As a result, my works often include animal and robotic elements, which I tend to depict in a cute style.
As a volunteer, I designed mascots for Free and Open Source projects like Krita and KDE. I also provided Chinese translations for various Free Software projects.
