Animal Series.

I've been busy working on a whole new series I came up with, of course, the Arab element is evident; as in most of my work, but this time without the use of my usual Arabic lettering, but symbols or outfits that have an Arab touch instead.

Here's a sneak preview. Good news on the way, will let you in soon.

Fashion 4 a Cause tank design.


A few weeks ago a very special event was launched at Wild Jordan. Artists and designers came together and designed graphics that were printed on tank tops, to help raise money for the completion of the King Hussein Cancer Center extension building.

I feel so lucky to have been part of it. Fashion 4 A Cause tank tops can be found at the Wild Jordan shop and PinkDust.




I wish I had photos of the other designs, but here's a good excuse for you to go check them out yourself!

Empathy vs Sympathy.

A wonderful animated short telling the different between empathy and sympathy, as described by Dr Brené Brown. She says: "The truth is, rarely can a response make something better, what makes something better is connection."

Watch.

Hello Blog, with capital "B".

Life has been good lately, no butterfly pooping and rainbows though.

News? I'm working on a super (awesome), kick-ass, idon'thaveenoughwordstodescribeit kind of project (well two actually)... and one of them is a personal project of mine that I've been working on hours-on-end. It does get tiring, but I'm so excited to get it out in the public that I'm kicking my own butt to get it out.

I will be posting about it sometime (soon), it should be out by the end of Ramadan if all goes smoothly and if I don't get sick/hit by a bus/beaten up (God forbid).

I've also come across some really good music (how would I even go on without music in life, oh music, I love you so, muah)... might be my meds talking right now (or not).

Anyway, here's a doodle I made that was inspired by Daughter's song Smother (beautiful, beautiful lyrics by the way).

Syntax Interface 2013: Celebrating 15 years

This Saturday was an unforgettable one for all the people who were/are involved with Syntax. We all celebrated Syntax's 15th birthday with a handful of inspiring talks and then dinner up on the roof with some awesome music, and of course, company.

To many, many years to come, happy birthday Syntax.

On the sunny side.

Hope you're having a wonderful time in the sun... If you're stuck indoors, well... you know you do have a very good excuse to escape the office (even if only for a tad bit).
