piggyhammer British Vietnamese manga artist. I am a self-taught artist specialising in delicate manga-style storytelling and illustration.

Born and raised in Vietnam before migrating to the UK, my work is deeply influenced by the rich cultural heritage of the East and the free-thinking ethos of the West. This blend of influences shapes my unique artistic voice. I have a passion for collaborating with people to tell stories and convey powerful messages through my art. My portfolio includes the webcomic Beauty and the Pig, a romantic c

omedy, as well as several one-shot manga stories published by Saturday AM, a US-based manga publisher, and Koguchi Press, a UK-based indie publisher. Additionally, I have a spin-off story published by Saturday AM internationally through a book deal with Quarto Group.

What is important enough to keep me off the net when my engagement is actually rapidly picking up?

✨ Well, I’m inspired to create these highly visual, sparkling with positivity and vivid colours, little stories to make someone’s day after seeing the animated film “Flow” in cinema yesterday. 💖

I want to create something that will not only make you feel WARM and COZY, but HAPPY and HOPEFUL 💖

Curious? Check out the Piggy Patrol to see my drafts which will be exclusively shared for a limited time 😋

Otherwise, these little cuteness-loaded mini-stories will be available at and then my website mid April 💖

Love you all,
piggy xx 🐽

Another long post alert. 🚨
Two years ago, I was stuck in a cycle of self-doubt, constantly questioning if I was good enough, if my stories mattered, or if I even had a place in the creative world. I struggled with confidence, battled depression, and often felt like I was shouting into the void, wondering if anyone truly cared about what I had to offer.

But then something changed—you.

Slowly, as I started sharing my work, you showed up. You engaged with my creative work, left kind words, and supported my journey in ways I never expected. Every comment, every message, every little moment of encouragement started to chip away at the belief that I wasn’t enough. Over time, I began to see my work through your eyes, not as something to be constantly criticised, but as something worth celebrating.

Creating stopped feeling like a lonely struggle and became something powerful—something that connected me to a world of people who resonated with my stories. The more I created, the more I fell in love with life itself. I stopped waiting for permission to believe in myself. I stopped questioning whether I was “good enough” and started embracing the simple joy of making things that mattered to me.

Now, over two years later, I’m living proof of how art and community can transform a person. You didn’t just support my work—you helped change my entire belief system. I no longer see creativity as just a skill or a career path, but as a force that shapes lives, mine included.

So, thank you. For being here. For believing in me before I fully believed in myself. And for reminding me, every day, why creating is one of the most powerful things we can do.
