In the early 1960s, Arie Smit, a Dutch-born painter, invited the children of Penestanan, Ubud, to come and experiment with bright oil paints in his Ubud studio. This eventually developed the Young Artists style distinguished by the use of brilliant colors, a strong sense of design focusing on scenes and activities from every day life in Bali.
