About me
Hi, it's me Maria Arum.
I am children's book illustrator from Indonesia. After graduated from college, I illustrated my very first book project for an Indonesian Publisher. That was the start of my illustrator's career.
I am a mother of two. My family is my world. And drawing is my other world.
So, being an illustrator isn't only my job, but also the way to fulfill my desires.
I love everything about nature, local culture and wisdom, faith, and humanity.
That are the things I want to show through my illustrations.
I enjoy working in a quiet atmosphere, or in a place where I can see the beauty of nature, while listening anything that comes from it.
I usually put bright colors and textures in my drawing.
Beautiful is the image of my illustration.
Hope, I can show creativity through captivating illustrations.
