Nurwanti Listya Dewi

I am Nurwanti, an Indonesian artist based in Bekasi, Indonesia. I paint colorful happy stories about my village, nature, and daily life.

artistic journey began very early. I started painting and joining painting competitions from kindergarten through high school (graduated 1993). From junior high to senior high school, I was selected every year to participate in the Jogja-Tokyo Student Painting Exhibition.

> From 2011 to 2013, I worked as a children's picture book author for Diva Press Yogyakarta with 10 published books. Then I worked as a health therapist until now.
> In 2026, I returned to painting and exhibited at Hotel Style 101 Malioboro, Yogyakarta.
>
> My current works explore Indonesian life through intricate doodle art. My collections include "Hutan Fantasiku" (My Fantasy Forest), "Pasar Tradisional" (Local Market), and other fantasy scenes filled with crowded characters, animals, and hidden stories. Each painting is 100% original and hand-drawn with love.
