"Discouraged from pursuing art
as a child, Seexeng pursued teaching and made art his specialty. His work takes cultural to a near spiritual level. He blends
his exploration of his roots with a contemporary and universal approach that has brought him many mainstream commissions."
- Tom LaVenture (Journalist)
"Seexeng is a recognized
artist and a passionate educator.His work is recognized nationally for its beauty, its power and its mythic
hold on meaning.Specifically, what it means to be Hmong in America and through time.Seexeng’s
work is a testament to the passion and perseverance of a community that has come a long ways to today and continues on a road
that will lead us to places we’ve never been."
- Kao Kalia Yang (Author of "The
Latehomecomer", by Coffee House Press. 2008)

I often think of the old masters of the Renaissance who giggle like small children in the candy store,
full of joy from the discovery of linear perspective, its vast potential and a new method of expression. I too giggle full
of joy with the thought of finally having opportunity to explore core elements and characteristics of my culture-the Hmong
culture!
