In her
own words:
Painting is my personal paradise. It allows me to live in my world
of dreams, and gives me every imaginable happiness. What fascinates
me, and inspires me to use Arabian horses as the subject of my art
is their incredible beauty, their charm, and their unique character.
I started
creating art as a child, and my favorite subject has always been the
Arabian horse. I have always loved them. I owned straight Egyptian
Arabian horses, but did not have enough time to enjoy them
thoroughly, and to do them justice. I have had many exhibitions
internationally, including individual and group exhibitions at
several galleries and horse shows in Europe. And I was at the
Egyptian Event in 2002, and the Qatar Horse Show in 2004 and 2005. I
favor working with delicate chalk pastels or red chalk. But I also
enjoy working with oils. I’m probably best known for my portrait of
RN Farida.
For the 2005
Egyptian Event Art Auction, I’m going to donate a picture of Ansata
Halim Shah. Apart from *Morafic, he is absolutely my favorite horse.
I am using pastels because they allow me to underline his delicate
features. When I was at the Egyptian Event in 2002, it gave me a lot
of pleasure. I hope to be back this year—it is so fascinating! I’m
proud and happy to have one of my works of art at the auction.
Three words to
describe my art? Committed, passionate, delicate.
