About the Artwork
---
There is a unique element to every person, and unique flaw to them as well. With his watercolor brush, Andy tries to capture his observation of the many different shades of people, albeit in black and white. His aim is to show that even in the unbalanced proportion of his brush’ strokes, in the flaws of every person, there is still beauty to be discovered.

A Jember-born artist, Andy Kurniawan sees art as a sanctuary for contemplation and self-expression. He started his artistic journey using traditional tools and skills he acquired from high-school art class and online learning platforms, such as SkillShare and Domestica. In 2018, Andy took to online platforms and social media to promote his works, where he met other illustrators whom he had cited as his main supporters in discovering his own style of art. His work was featured in a modest pop-up art event in 2021 hosted by moselo, an online art-dealing platform that has been crucial in helping Andy gaining broader audience and recognition for his art.
 
As an illustrator, Andy Kurniawan wishes to capture moments that emanate positivity. He regards illustration as simply a medium of communication. His works take inspiration from scenes of daily life, issues, feelings, animals, and faith. In creating his art, he has been working with various materials and tackling different issues.
