Who is Shinta

- A bit about me.   Well, for starter I am an IT entrepreneur with an architecture background, who is a Capricorn; I write, I read, I paint, I create, I collect, I crave for fashion and style and I endure pain (a genuine sign that you are alive and kicking) and live for happiness. 

The emotion and the passion that I sense are the factors that brought me to write this blog.  

Lately, I ache to get in touch with that part of me. 

The facet that I had ignored in my hectic days and yet, I reluctantly relinquished because how it had bestowed upon me a comfort zone. 

A place for me to discover a “whole new world” and a place that I come to become so “ME” again.  I am nobody just the “passionated Shinta

” in this blog. 

This blog only represents another side of me.

  If most people know me from my techy venture with my Bubu.com, by reading this blog you will discover my intense passion for design and art.   I want to share with you my passionated facet which is mostly the designer, poet, art enthusiast and collector part of me, the side that not everyone knows about.   One of my passions is my love for the Indonesian Batik. 

I believe Indonesian Batik is by far the most beautiful and work of Art Batik in the world. 

I am not just saying this because I am Indonesian, but the work that Indonesian Batik makers had put in through out the centuries is just extraordinary.  I don’t know where to begin, but I have this exceptional fascination for Indonesian Batik, be it Antique Batik or the new Batik.  

I highly salute the Batik makers, who have not only artistic skills in creating a hand drawn Batik cloth but he or she has to have the extra patience and passion to craft a batik cloth from the beginning till the end.   So in this blog, I dedicate my passion for art, design, fashion, antiques and Indonesian Batik in particulars, so a perfect name I thought would be to name this Blog: Batik Antik (bahasa Indonesia for: Antique Batik).  

Hope through this blog, I can share with all of you a tint of passion and a dash of inspiration; as I always indulged myself to be inspired by the divine individuals that surround me.  

Here with also, I dedicate a special section in my Blog for all those inspirational personas who are designers, painters, art enthusiasts, mentors and alike whom I met or yet to meet. 

My deepest gratefulness to those lovely people who have granted me with endless stimulation that had birthed all the aspirations in my life. 

To everyone who reads my blog, thank you and enjoy to continuously be inspired.
