This is the second time Tien has been honoured by WorldKings, the first union of national and regional records organizations in the world. Along with the world honour, he also set a Vietnamese record for the fifth time.
The Vietnamese artist received recognition from WorldKings for drawing 12 such abstract paintings in record time in 2019.
He was given 15 minutes to set a record, but he managed the feat in just six minutes and 28 seconds.
Born in 1961, Tien had considerable passion for drawing paintings from a young age.
After completing his military service, he devoted many nights to using his fingers to paint images in reverse on glass panels while working as a market vendor during the day.
After honing in his skills, Tien has been renowned for his paintings in reserve on glass since 2005./.
