Indonesian artist & illustrator Luqman Reza Mulyono, better known as ‘Jongkie’, uses watercolors to create colorful animal illustrations with a whimsical touch.
About his sources of inspiration Jongkie states: ‘For me especially, nature provides unfathomable inspirations. The living of creatures and animals in the wild never fail to excite me the most. On the other side, I’m an emotional and a touchy person. I fall in love facilely for beautiful things. I’m quickly shed tears when I read a sad novel or watch a sorrowful event in real life or even a fiction. Those things motivate me to create watercolor paintings that contain stories about life in the manner of metaphors.’ (source: Boredpanda)
Jongkie’s dream to turn his hobby and passion into a successful business became a reality when more and more people began noticing his work. He now works with different people worldwide as a result of the interest for his work.
