Andrew Hem is a Cambodian painter living in Los Angeles. According to his website he fled Cambodia with his parents after the Khmer Rouge Genocide. I love the color palette, the hues of blue are really comforting and I like the minor distortions in his figure work. His layering of elements between foreground and background add a dreamlike collage that I've been drawn to lately. For more work from Hem check out his website and RSS his blog.
