Artist Alley Portfolio

LeafJellyArts is run by Lief Diep, a queer Vietnamese American artist based in Florida. They use bold and vibrant lines to create original designs featuring cats, aliens, weird bunnies, fish, medical gore, and LGBTQ pride. The physical art products sold include: stickers, acrylic keychains, pins, accessories, wood magnets, and plushies.

I draw inspiration from what I love: everyday house cats, freshwater fish, and the beauty of medical art. As an artist, I am on a mission to draw every common cat as a silly little sticker. I love bonding with my community over the things I’m deeply passionate about. It brings me great joy to hear customers looking at my cat art say, “That looks like Bubba!” or “That’s exactly like Cheddar.” 

My realistic, highly detailed fish art starts lively conversations with other passionate home aquarium owners. I draw specific fish species in excruciating detail to show off the deep beauty of each fish. I approach my medical gore art the same way, drawing every organ medically accurately while adding an artistic flourish to them.
