Agung Guritno was born in Bandung, Indonesia, 'The Paris of Java'. His childhood was spent creating cartoons and drawings, and making toys and games, to entertain himself, his friends and his family. His whimsical imagination saw the humour and beauty in his vibrant surroundings, a talent that combined with his artistic skills to nurture the artist he has become today.

The early adult life of the artist was spent designing T-shirts and postcards, items he personally hand painted to sell to receptive tourists. He travelled to Europe to discover new horizons to illustrate, then returned to his homeland to work with a colleague from Australia, Rosalinda Corazon. The team wrote and photographed stories for magazines, about the rich and diverse culture of Java, before relocating to Australia to showcase Guritno artwork in lasting collectibles for people to appreciate and to cherish.

Guritno, now an Australian citizen, embraced the environment and culture of the colourful land downunder, no longer the neighbour of his homeland, but his home. Australia's unique flora and fauna were ideal subjects for the versatile artist.

An accomplished guitarist, Guritno also drew on his musical passions, developing popular artworks for the extensive Guritno music range.

Today, Guritno Australia is the creative partnership of Agung Guritno and Rosalinda Corazon. As a professional team they transform the original artwork of Guritno into captivating images that grace Guritno Australia's delightful products. From their Sydney studios, they collaborate to conjure visual stories on pieces that are beloved and collected across the world.
