Art has always been a part of me. Ever since I was young, I knew I wanted to do something creative with my life. In school, I would dive deep into every art project, and I spent hours on our family computer, researching visual arts programs at universities. It was around 7th or 9th grade when I decided that the University of Jordan would be my path to becoming a visual artist. Even though my parents weren’t entirely on board with the idea, I pursued my dream and graduated with a degree in visual arts.

While studying, I worked different jobs to gain some experience and knowledge about the business world. After I graduated, I ended up losing my job and spent six months looking for another one without any luck. It was a difficult time, and money was tight, but I refused to give up. I realized I could teach art—something I had done before—and so in 2021, I taught my first private watercolor class. From there, things began to change.

The success of that first class gave me the courage to keep going. Artistry Studio was born. We started small, but with each workshop, we grew. Now, after hosting over 3000 workshops and activities in Jordan and the UAE, Artistry Studio has become a place where people can connect with their creativity. We’ve created a community that celebrates art, where anyone—whether experienced or not—can come, explore, and escape from the stresses of daily life. Our studio has become a safe, welcoming space for people to create, learn, and find peace through art.

Today, Artistry Studio is much more than just a studio. It’s a space for growth, expression, and connection. I’m so proud of how far we’ve come and excited for what the future holds.
