The 24 finalists of YayArtist '08!

Born and raised in Northeastern China, seven years ago Nod gave up a factory job to move to Beijing and pursue his dream to incorporate art into his life. Today Nod is the Creative Director and Co-Founder of his own creative group, Khaki Creative & Design. With a home-base in Beijing, China, Khaki Creative focuses on creative branding services for clients in China, the US, and the UK as they look to explore the rest of the world.

Nod’s personal works have been displayed in exhibitions in the UK, Germany, Japan, Mainland China, and Taiwan.

I hope that while so many people are out smelling the flowers, someone is taking the time to plant some.
