In this page, I want to convey stories behind the graphic designs and illustration that I've worked. I mainly used Adobe Photoshop for editing and illustrating, some using Adobe Illustration. I rarely, but have used once in a while Figma. For curated project-based designs, please check Portfolio.
Illustration.
I started from art, especially manual 2D art. So most of my work are influenced or at least having parts that it is hand-drawn, leveraging brushes, rather than vector art. I also had commission of portraits. Below picture of a book cover of "Guns, Germs, and Steel" that I designed for my friend, I initially read and researched about the points brought in the book then translate them into picture.
​
As I enjoyed the book, I found that the book talks about how difference in nations are not caused by race, but rather geological and the development of agriculture and change from nomadic hunt-gatherer to a rooted society. Therefore, I insert how two people in different colors that they discuss, with transparent industrial background behind the corn field and sheep. As agriculture initially depends on precipitation, I also give rain illustration.

I also worked on logos and brand-making for events, organizations, and local business. I researched the idea board of each project, sketched my ideas, and present it to the client. I use much of illustration brush-stroke to make more personalized, flowy, and flexible style.

proposed design:
I worked for a branding for local business for beauty product that used natural-based ingredient. The main ingredients used are pumpkin seed and seaweed, so I used a color palette inspired by them. The client also request that the packaging should be sustainable, unique, and having Indonesia identity, so I combined batik-inspired pumpkin plant pattern and using besek or rattan box for the packaging. I also used Javanese writing of 'cha-ta-ma' inside the logo used.
