Tien has been honored by WorldKings, the first union of national and regional records organizations in the world, for the second time. Along with the world honor, he also set a Vietnamese record for the fifth time.
WorldKings recognized the Vietnamese artist for creating 12 abstract paintings in record time in 2019.
He was given 15 minutes to set the record, but he completed the task in just six minutes and 28 seconds.
Born in 1961, Tien developed a strong passion for painting from a young age.
After completing his military service, he dedicated many nights to painting images in reverse on glass panels using only his fingers, while working as a market vendor during the day.
Since 2005, Tien has gained recognition for his reverse glass paintings, showcasing his honed skills.
