Dina Riyanti
is an illustrator from Indonesia
Hello! I finished my study in MA Children's Book Illustration at Cambridge School Of Art in January 2019.
In 2017, I led a team to develop leveled books for Papuan children, under the UNICEF Indonesia for Papua, as well as being involved as an author and illustrator.
I admire the quirky and playful works of Quentin Blake and Oliver Jeffers, as well as the dreamy paintings and prints of my favourite artist, Marc Chagall. I am fascinated by the richness of cultural diversity, colours, humour and heartwarming message.
