What is your favorite type of art to create?

Portraits in Oil painting, Watercolor, soft pastel, acrylic

Where do you find inspiration?

From the people who hold an important place in my life and from their lives… and also from the injustices faced by people all over the world—especially women, children, and animals and nature as well.

What would you do with $25,000?

By opening courses in my art studio ( themuses.artatelier) , I aim to help those who are unaware of their talent discover it, and to create space for people who don’t have the opportunity to engage in art.
