Creative gift like no other. Novia is very talented and a great visionary & illustrator. Highly recommend her.
Novia was born in Samarinda, Kalimantan Timur, Indonesia. As a child, expressing her thoughts through words was never her forte. However, when her Mama taught her the art of drawing, it began to open her heart to relate to others through strokes and colours.
Even after constantly moving jobs and countries, integrating new cultures and meeting new people, the passion for drawing has never left her, but rather, has driven her to share it with the younger generations.
Now living in Sydney (Dharug Country), she aims to incorporate her expertise as a former early childhood teacher and graphic designer, to continue this passion through children book illustrations.
Her inspiration flows from the candid interactions, conversations, and ideas of the young children that she has taught, as well as her toddler at home.
She envisions herself as a bridge between early years education and the creative art sector to nurture empathy and creativity through her drawings, and stories.
Creative gift like no other. Novia is very talented and a great visionary & illustrator. Highly recommend her.
Love Novia’s artwork, they all are so beautiful I wish I can collect them all! Since the first time I saw Novia’s online gallery, it reminds me of God’s promise over me and my family.
She is brilliant and so talented. I definitely recommend learning from her and buying her artwork.
Novia is very talented and professional. Novia created a beautiful watercolour portrait of my son for his first birthday. I am impressed with her ability to translate my request and ambiguous thoughts into meaningful and lively ideas, and then produced an amazing artwork. Her work with exquisite details reflects her creativity and artistic skills. The incorporation of her gorgeous calligraphy makes the painting even more precious!
Highly recommend Novia’s painting lessons! She is a very talented painter and a great teacher!
It has been such a pleasure to have worked with Novia as we co-taught our beautiful Preschoolers. Novia is not only an amazing teacher but so full of knowledge, positivity and motivation to say the least! Through the delightful provocations that she prepared for the children each day, we could really see and feel her genuine passion and love for art being shared with everyone. Our Preschool children continue to grow each day as they engage in various art experiences derived from daily life topics, special events, children’s interest and imagination. Love you and your talents Novia!
