Artist's Statement:
I was born in a village in Beqaa Governorate which is probably one of the most spiritual and romantic places in the valley. I’m passionate about art, specifically painting. In fact, painting allows me to explore new ideas and themes around us, in addition to using new colouring techniques in such a way to express my feelings and thoughts. Most of my paintings depict beautiful landscapes and exquisite flowers. I’ve been painting ever since 2007 summer after taking painting classes with a professional artist (Abd al Rahman Alkhatib).
Furthermore, I participate in giving painting lessons for younger learners, and also had a great share in painting wall murals in collaboration with “Save the Children Association” between the years 2013 and 2015. In 2016, I participate in an art exhibition which was called (Draw your dream) at the Azhar of Beqaa supported by the "Youth Initiative Association”. I’m still as determined as before to continue painting, exploring new colouring techniques and painting styles in order to make a new personalized collection and perhaps eternal masterpieces.
