Walaa Alghamdi was born and raised in Abha, a small and beautiful mountain town in the southwest of Saudi Arabia. She obtained her first BFA degree in Languages and Translations, English Emphasis from King Khalid University in Abha, Saudi Arabia. Then she followed her passion for art and pursued her second BFA degree in Fine Arts, Drawing and Painting Emphasis at The Academy of Art University in San Francisco. She works with watercolors and mixed media to express her interest in gesture and the language of line in an abstracted way. She creates lines and boundaries then they get overlapped, broken, erased, or embraced. She likes tapping into those somewhat universal associations: the idea of flow, mutability, and the cycles of life. Her work is an impression of her feelings, thoughts and development.
