In 1966 during schooling, I had received Honor Award Certificate 1967 from the Prime minister of the high education in Cairo; Egypt. In 1982, I was commissioned to produce an oil painting of the “Canadian Constitution Act” which was presented to the then Prime Minister of Canada Mr. P. E. Trudeau. In 1999, I had the privilege to receive a thank you letter from Mr. Trudeau expressing how proud he was to hang that beautiful painting in his home.”

I have a B.F.A Bachelor of Fine Arts (measured in Interior and Exterior designs), Commercial Arts Diploma, Certificate of Achievement in Digital Media and Desktop Publishing Diploma with Honor Award. As well, she has worked as an Art Jury member of several international art exhibitions.”

I beleive that art is a manifestation of love, loving the nature around us and the people we share our world with. Art reflects a wealth of cultural, history and identity as affirmation of man for it is a self-expression of how one perceives matters. In turn, art will work as a powerful tool and a silent International language that can convey messages to the world reflecting culture, history and civilization. This language can speak up, announce, express, make known, unify, bring together, support, encourage, share, care for, show compassion and kind feelings toward all. When we truly love what we do, we do it whole-souled and become professionals at it. In two words; Art is to LOVE”
