I have had the intention to blog for some time but, after I started my Masters, finding time to draw anything other than office/university related stuff has become kind of a mission impossible! But today, at last, I’m posting again!!! ...a simple sketch, but it’s always better than nothing ;)

Though I like the concept, I don’t really like how this illustration turned out, but I’ve too little free time to do it again, so …I decided to post it anyways! :P

I’m super duper happy to inform you guys that my first book is out!!!! Entitled “ما احاى النوم” , it is a children book written by Samar M. Barraj, published by ASALA Publishers, and completely illustrated by me! Yes! Me!!!! It will be available in most libraries soon. I’ve attached a photo of the book and some illustrations. Enjoy :)
But this is not to be compared with the colors and resolution of the printed book! :D
