That’s how you say “Hello” in Arabic. Which is my first language!
Growing up, I was always drawn to art and creating things. I lived in my head most of the time (and still do), and imagined worlds that only I can see. I started writing and illustrating stories when I was 11, and that dream has been with me for many years.
My favourite materials to work with are watercolors and colouring pencils, and most recently gouache and Procreate (digital).
Besides drawing, I travel and yearn to go on adventures around our beautiful globe with my kid. I also enjoy reading, journaling, having my cake and eating it too!
I live in sunny Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
