Anatasiia Kuusk was born and grew up in Ukraine. Two years ago she arrived in Vietnam before the start of the COVID-19 outbreak, and she later chose to stay in the country. |
She says the image of the tiger reminds her most of Vietnam, similar to her feelings of Europe as bears or Australia as koalas. |
Drawing inspiration from the animals, the Ukrainian artist creates a collection of paintings of the tiger to mark Vietnam’s coming lunar New Year in 2022 – the Year of the Tiger. |

Some of the sketches capture the ordinary moments of tigers. |
Ana sketches out her ideas of tigers in her personal notebook. |
Her drawings are always soulful, helping to leave an image of close and intimate feelings about the big animal representing the upcoming lunar year, according to the Oriental culture. |
