About Cedric Cheng
“Communication and art goes hand in hand and in order to achieve the goals of the client, the artist needs to work with them, not over them, against them, or resist them. At the end of the day, if the client is not happy with your work…..nobody is happy at the end. From concept to creation, we want the experience to be positive and prosperous.”
