Available to hire
I am a Visual Artist and 2D/3D Concept Artist specializing in character design, illustration, and 3D asset creation. I work across both traditional and digital mediums, with a strong foundation in painting and drawing. I specialize in 3D modeling, sculpting, texturing, and look development, and bring a unique perspective to concept art and character creation for various visual storytelling formats. My creative journey began in makeup artistry and body painting, contributing to fashion editorials and campaigns for brands such as Vodafone and publications like Vogue Arabia.
Since then, I’ve developed visual concepts for immersive events and produced commissioned artwork and installations for private collectors and cultural institutions, with features on platforms including Reuters and AJ+. I’m eager to contribute my skills to creative teams in film, games, or advertising, where I can help bring characters and environments to life. I value mentorship, creative freedom, and continuous growth, and I’m excited to evolve alongside inspiring collaborators and bold visual projects.
