He inherited his ability from his grandmother, a famous painter in her own time.
Wayan Suarjiwatman was born in the Gianyar regency of Bali on August 18, 1974. When he was only two years old he loved making sketches on his neighbor's wall and drawing puppets. After graduating from Junior High School, he continued to SMSR Ubud where he studied traditional painting for four years. Also he learned much by studying the works of senior Balinese painters. At STSI College of Art he focused on a modern painting style.
Suarjiwatman strives to be a diversified artist, taking interest in varied activities such as dancing, playing music, theater, and painting. He inherited his ability from his grandmother, a famous painter in her own time. Currently, he is dedicated only to painting. He lives in a small studio along with about 200 of his paintings. He comes from a humble background, as his parents are farmers and practice a simpler way of life.
In 1998, Suarjiwatman received a prize from STSI Denpasar College of Art as the best painter. He has participated in many exhibitions in Indonesia as well as a collective show in Australia in 1993.

Spotlight on Acrylic Paintings
Many artists across the world prefer to work with acrylic paints as their brilliance of color and great flexibility allows them the artistic freedom they seek. Acrylic paintings are highly resistant to the passage of time thanks to their polymer foundation. The canvas must be especially primed for acrylic paintings, and brushes have been specifically developed.
Acrylic paints are ideal for art movements and trends that emphasize high brilliance and the application of various textural effects, as well as the rapid completion of a full-bodied paint quality composition. In the United States the painting styles of the mid-20th century required the introduction of acrylic paints and their subsequent development.
Acrylics have been accepted worldwide as they entice artists willing to experiment with their variety of colors and textures. Themes in our exclusive collection of acrylic paintings include the moving faces of emotion and the mystical allure of spirituality; the powerful beauty of nature and the colors of tradition. Novica’s collection attests to the boundless energy of contemporary artists throughout the world. We hope you enjoy!
