About Me
Hi, I'm Hanif — a freelance illustrator and hobbyist based in Indonesia. I’ve loved drawing since I was a child, mostly using traditional tools like pencil and paper.In 2009, I tried digital art and practiced it until I had to pause for a while due to health issues. In 2014, I returned my focus to traditional art—sketching, inking, and especially watercolor, which I still enjoy today. And I began exploring various traditional media, like gouache, poster paint, acrylic paint, alcohol marker, acrylic marker, soft oil pastel, etc.Nowadays, I work a full-time office job and dedicate my weekends to art. I’m active in several local art communities — artist groups, urban sketchers, youth circles, and small business networks. I participate in events and creative markets, often joining community booths to sell handmade merch like art prints and crafts.Though art is a part-time passion, it’s always been a full-time love.Thanks for stopping by and getting to know me better!
