I Ketut Soki (born 1946 in Balinese) is a successful artist from Bali. As a boy, he was one of the first two children to receive art lessons from the famous artist Arie Smit, and so one of the founders of the Young Artists movement.

In 1960, Arie Smit went for a walk through the rice fields in Penestanan, Bali, and found a young boy drawing pictures in the sand. Smit invited the boy to his studio and gave him crayons and paper. The name of the young boy was I Nyoman Cakra. As a true Balinese, Nyoman did not want to be alone, so he asked, Can my nephew come too? His nephew was I Ketut Soki and these two youths became Smits first pupils.
