BIO

I am an Iraqi born artist. I live and work in the States since 2017. I have had the honor to take Art classes in all the places and countries I lived in. I traveled to many places and I adore the beauty in each and every culture. I am a student at Rhode Island School of Design / RISD Continuing Education. Life has taken me to different directions, but my passion to Art has always been my number one.

Artist Statement

I love to paint using oil colors on canvas. I capture moments to paint and remember. There is a story behind each artwork I do. I like to use all colors specially the bright and shiny. Hope, love and happiness are my messages in my artwork.
