it's long time since I sketched a princess or a girl figure, a little bit awkward on the eyes I think :)
I really miss bright Mr. Sunshine nowaday, but we cannot just sit and do nothin, right?!
So I make a little doodle just to brighten up a little bit..

One morning accompanied by Javanese song, and little Mumu..
Sakehing kang dumadi makardi,Lir Hyang Widhi kan tansah makarya,Nguripi jagad tan leren,Surya, Candra, lan BayuBhumi, tirta kalawan agni,Peparing panguripan,Mring pamrih wus mungkur,Anane nuhoni dharma,Iku dadya “Sastra cetha” tanpa tulis,Nulat lakuning alam.Semua yang ada di ini bekerja,
Bahkan Tuhan pun bekerja,
Menghidupi dunia tanpa henti,
Matahari, bulan, dan angin
Bumi, air tanpa kecuali api,
Memberi kehidupan,
Semua bekerja demi kelangsungan hidup tanpa pamrih,
dasarnya hanyalah merasa wajib,
Alam adalah “Ilmu nyata” tanpa tertulis,
Kita wajib belajar dan meniru dharma baktinya alam

The final result for my post about The frog who lost his home .
Story by Ary Nilandari.
In this project I try to put the effort on the details, about the frog family expression, the mountain of stones that been taken away by the human, and the beauty of the ecosystem in this story. As this story are real life situation , about the rocks mining in Java, a little bit of Javanese culture is put inside the details, like the the "blangkon' that the frog put on their head, the batik for dancing, and gamelan for the music instruments. Enjoy.. :)

Sketches and sketches...
:: Give our rock back!

:: Maybe we can do something...

:: From rock to rock we jump and play, from rock to rock we dance and sing!

Karena geregetan liat orang berdasi, rapi dan klimis buang sampah sembarangan.
Karena geregetan liat si cantik wangi, tanpa rasa bersalah buang sampah sembarangan
Karena geregetan liat ayah dan bunda membiarkan anaknya buang sampah sembarangan
karena melihat peluh pembersih jalanan dan sampah yang melihat para pembuang2 sampah ini tidak sedikitpun berpikir, bila.., kesadaran membuang sampah pada tempatnya, dan kesadaran untuk tidak menyusahkan orang lain, akan sangat- sangat membantu mereka

Mbok Jamu

It taste bitter and sometimes can be sweetened by adding honey and ginger, remembering this as part of my childhood tradition :)
SocialitesJust want to warming up a little bit by drawing this :) ..

It's about his experience as a poor farmer boy, finding his way to get out from his condition, a heart warming stories that remind us to accept life what ever condition we've been given to , but also to be smart and find our own way to break through to find a better life, and respect it.
Kriuk! Perut Dahlan semakin lapar. Dia menatap meja makan dengan nanar. Di sana tidak ada sedikit pun hidangan.Sedari pagi Dahlan belum makan.
Rumble! Dahlan’s getting hungrier. Dahlan hazily stares at the dining table. There isn’t even a bit of food to ease this hunger.
Since this morning Dahlan hasn’t found anything to gobble.

Still working on this project, it's about a frog who lost his stone where he used to singing and dancing with his friends, because of the city development. Got enough time to work on this project, so I do hope the quality is much much better.. :)
Thanks to God.. :)

Nisa, a Muslim girl, and Lili, a Chinese-Indonesian, debate over where cap go meh rice cake

Finally done! Been doing this 15 spread books illustration in 2 weeks, errgg I'm so tired and so overwhelmed at the same time! I really love the story line because it really take a lot of courage to lift the topic of different religion and race in Indonesia, I hope this book could give a positive mind set for those who read it, that all religion is good, it is us, as human being, who have to learn a lot more about humanity and tolerance, no matter what race are we, what religion are we...
So.. enjoy.. :)
Cap Go Meh
By Sofie Dewayani and Eugenia Gina
Nisa, a Muslim girl, and Lili, a Chinese-Indonesian, debate over whether lontong Cap Go Meh is the genuine icon of Eid Al-Fitr tradition or Chinese New Year celebration. After sharing the excitement of experiencing each celebration, both end up discovering what is more essential; that a dish is able to bridge diversity. Lontong Cap Go Meh represents the Indonesian melting pot. Consisting of rice cake, chicken curry, along with several other side dishes, it characterizes the interwoven of Chinese, Malay, and the local Javanese cultural tapestry.
An alternative for my next book, this one is the unused one, but still, I like it.. :)
