Children's illustration.

I've been busy with a few projects, and this is one of them (my favorite).
I'll talk more about it in another post (it's almost out).

On da coverrrr.

Look who's on the cover of this month's issue of OC Magazine!!!

It was such a sweet surprise to find that out, since I was told that I won't be appearing on the cover, YAY!!

The long weekend is just around the corner, hang in there!

Spray paint and stencils.

Today was one historical day, I had my very first graffiti out in the streets, AND I had my very first art printed on Mlabbas tshirts (which I'll be showing you soon).

VERY excited!!!

Work in Progress.

My friend Zina and I are working on a little project... All I can say for now is that it involves screen printing... Will reveal more later...

And to all the people celebrating Eid this year...  Happy Eid :)

A Peek.

Mr. Jameel (aka Jimmy) was in great spirits for the Eid celebration, on the wall of Pinkdust. 

ps If you're in Amman drop by the Pinkdust boutique in Abdoun from 3-7:00 to check out their new collection of apparel / art / accessories from the Arab world. (For map go here)

Will reveal more tomorrow after the event. Stay tuned.

Mural.

I will be working on a mural at the delightful Pinkdust boutique tomorrow. I am psyched and can't wait to start splashing paint all over their wall. If you're in town it would be lovely if you could pass-by and say hi.

Happy.

This photo makes me smile. Every time.

Kalimat: Magazine Feature.

I'm ecstatic about Kalimat magazine's fall issue, where my thesis project is featured. 

"Kalimat Magazine is committed to rejuvenating Arabic culture by providing an outlet for political, cultural and social expression within the Arab region and its Diaspora. At the same time, it is a visual communication tool that serves to change Western perception of Arabs. The purpose is to be an open outlet for expression and to increase participation within the cultural/creative scene, therefore, the content is created by Arab people, the writers are Arab, the editor is Arab, the people featured are Arab."

Booklets.

I just finished printing / binding / trimming six presentation booklets. Ah it feels so good. Can't wait to kick butt tomorrow. I finally feel ready (mentally / emotionally / practically).

Now I need to cook myself a good meal. I'm thinking Kabob. YUM.

p.s. I will soon be posting my very own seafood soup recipe. I need to come up with a proper name for it though...

Packaging.

I got really excited when I found out that my packaging was featured on both The Dieline and lovely package...

You can view them here and here.

Born Rufians where have you been all my life?

Hearing this tune got my pathetic butt off of my computer and on my bike.

Happy as a clam.

I have just finished my Snow White symbol book...

Total work hours: 21 (ouch)
