Through colorful drawings from Minh Minh's watercolors and crayons, the image of the local police forces being on pandemic prevention and control duties regardless of the daytime or the nighttime, rain or sunshine, have come to life in the most vivid way.

Likewise, images of the sanitation workers silently keeping the city green, clean and beautiful in the days of social distancing or the image of medical forces caring COVID-19 patients are vividly reflected in an emotional way, touching the heats of the viewers.

She also redraws touching and inspirational photos published recently in newspapers such as the moment of saxophonist Tran Manh Tuan performed at the field hospital No. 3, Thu Duc City on the evening of July 24; the image of Hai Chau District’s police officers giving gifts to support poor people due to the pandemic or the traffic policeman hurriedly eating a packet of noodles during his shift in a prompt fashion.

At the age of 4, talented little girl Minh Minh has passionate about drawing so her family always support her to pursue the passion.

Recently, through her mother's words and the media, she gradually understood the sacrifices of frontline forces in pandemic prevention and control duties so she has drawn many artworks to support them.
In the context of the complicated developments of the coronavirus wave, her paintings aim to be a sincere thank you, a gift to the frontline workers.

They are also the reflection of children’s desire for a happy, safe and normal life as well as the encouragement for the frontline forces. Thereby, meaningful and bright messages can be spread for the sake of every individual in our beloved country. 

Below are some vivid Minh Minh’s drawings on the topic of COVID-19 prevention and control. Photo courtesy of her family.
