Indonesian artist Kartika Paramita brings a riot of joyful colour into homes worldwide through her vibrant illustrations and surface pattern designs. Based near Jakarta, Kartika has been quietly building her practice since 2013, experimenting with watercolour, gouache, colour pencils, oil pastels and crayons before taking the leap into full-time illustration in early 2023. A mother to one daughter, she famously paints in the quiet hours of the night while her baby sleeps, with the help of her little brother behind the scenes.
Recognised as an Adobe Artist Development Fund recipient in 2022, Kartika has gone on to create commissioned work for global names including Sephora, Pinterest Asia and Adobe. Every Kartika Paramita print is meticulously crafted by hand using traditional mediums, then carefully scanned to be reproduced as high-quality wall art prints. For digital pieces, she works exclusively in Procreate on her iPad. Every piece is human-made, with no AI image generators involved.
Kartika's artwork moves fluidly between joyful subjects, each rendered in a palette of rich, saturated colour that brings instant warmth to any space. Colourful Mountains, one of her most-loved pieces and a bestseller in our colourful wall art range, takes inspiration from scenic landscapes, transforming rolling hills, blooming wildflowers and pastel skies into a dreamlike escape. Its painterly texture, mixed mediums and almost storybook quality give it a softness that flat digital art simply cannot match.
Pink Mountains explores the same landscape theme through a softer, more atmospheric lens, with watercolour-led pastel mountains rising under a pink-and-blue sky. Together, these mountain wall art prints make a beautiful set for layered gallery walls in living rooms, bedrooms or kids' spaces.
Flower Market and A Colourful Platter highlight Kartika's love of floral wall art and culinary subjects, two recurring themes that thread through her practice. Where Flower Market bursts with abstracted blooms in pink, orange, blue and lilac, A Colourful Platter celebrates the joy of food and tablescapes, capturing a beautifully spread breakfast laden with bowls of berries, eggs and small details. Parisian Breakfast takes the same culinary love into a quieter, more intimate moment, just a coffee, a croissant and the calm of a morning to yourself.
For lovers of pattern and abstraction, Pink Abstract showcases Kartika's surface pattern designer roots, weaving grids of colour into a deceptively simple composition that hums with energy. It sits beautifully alongside our broader abstract wall art range and nods to her years of design work while balancing her more illustrative pieces.
At Inka Arthouse, we love championing artists like Kartika Paramita who are bringing fresh, joyful voices into the contemporary art world. Display her vibrant illustrations alongside our other emerging artists like BYALMAKLUB and Paige Byrne, or pair her florals with works from our floral wall art collection for a layered, colour-rich gallery wall.
Kartika's prints work beautifully in spaces that welcome colour: kitchens (where A Colourful Platter and Parisian Breakfast feel right at home), kids' rooms and nurseries (where her florals and landscapes spark imagination), living rooms (where Colourful Mountains makes a joyful statement piece), and home offices (where Pink Abstract adds energy and creative focus). When you buy a Kartika Paramita print, you're not just decorating your wall, you're supporting a working artist and mother building her practice one painting at a time.
