Summary

With 15 years of experience in the field, my journey as a painter has been fulfilling. I began as a self-taught artist and soon recognized the importance of honing my skills with accomplished instructors. My primary focus is on oil painting and portraiture, but I have also delved into other artistic forms including Tazhib, calligraphy, three-dimensional wooden paintings and sculptures, and murals. This diverse range of mediums allows me to express my creativity and passion for art in distinctive and captivating ways.
