You Illuminate my Path, Lord." (Psalm 119:105) ... Diptych ... Painting

To Maha: Art depicts her life journey ... A Divine Gift to nurture and realize her Faith and Spiritual Growth. "ART FOR HIM" ... THE LIGHT ART ... A vessel to convey the real purpose of art. Her Hometown Ramallah, Palestine where she lived till age 21, had a great impact on her art. A Palestinian, born in Jerusalem, currently living in Dubai. Her modern abstract art is A Call for Peace, from the Holy Land, A Science student, attached to nature. There, in Ramallah, her Peace Prayer began. The Peace like no other, the Peace of Christ Jesus to the entire Humankind. At age 33, her first attempt with art was a Pencil Drawing course but realized the need for a free flowing, more diffusive flexible approach. Was directed to Watercolor Painting courses (Dubai Art Center, 1994-1997). Self taught Acrylic painting on paper and canvas (2008 - present). Painting lightens up soul burdens and enlightens times of dim spirits. The beauty of the simplest artwork, gives insights into creative abilities and means of developing masterpieces following the Spirit-led insight. Meditating on the beauty of nature was her escape from hardships as change of focus. Seasonal change in all aspects of its beauty: the horizon, sky, mountains, trees mainly, Springtime, blossoms of various colors. It was like: "Lord I see You in all the Works of Your Hands. "Simple art reflecting a simple soul, hoping the right piece of art and message of blessing finds the right seeker. As Henri Matisse states: "What I dream of is an art of balance, of purity and serenity devoid of troubling or depressing subject matter - a soothing, calming influence on the mind, rather like a good armchair which provides relaxation from physical fatigue."
