The creative process in formulating the background concept of work carried out by an artist with various new and unique works sometimes gets less appreciation, even though there are many new ideas that need more attention. This study examined the motivation and creative process of Nanang Garuda in creating Wayang Pulau (a traditional puppet from Indonesia). The research approach used descriptive qualitative methods in the form of field research at the Garuda House Museum. Data collection used observation, interviews, documentation and recording. The validity technique used triangulation of data sources. Data analysis used data collection, reduction, presentation, and verification. The results of the study are as follows. First, Nanang Garuda always creates unique works. His work motivation is his love for Garuda bird with the vision and mission of reviving and rebranding the Garuda which is currently being forgotten by many Indonesians. The stages of the creative process carried out by Nanang Garuda are in the form of preparing to collect information on various problems regarding Indonesianness. The incubation of ideas is done by looking for answers based on Googling and books. The illumination stage is carried out by visualizing the idea into a work. Lastly, the verification stage is done by evaluating each completion of the work and at the end of the wayang show. The researcher's suggestion is that Nanang Garuda's hard work and dedication should always be used as an example of enthusiasm in spurring work.
