The aim of this project was to draw an image of myself. I wanted to draw something that showed what I wanted to be in my future. So after doing alot of research about Architects and trying to bring my culture to the piece, I finally decided to do a peice that combined all. I was very much inspired by the work of the Architect, Antoni Gaudi who inspired me to make my final piece using a mixture of colored tiles and broken mirrors. I wanted the buildings to look old because where i come from Old houses where made out of Mud and looked very much like this peice above. I love using mirrors in my work because they represent a reflection, So it kind of reflects the career I'd like to follow in my future.
Old Town Deriyah , Riyadh , Saudi Arabia. 2010
Hundreds of years ago,People in Saudi used to build their houses using Mud.
They are kept as a historical monument.

I love using pastels when i'm painting, I specifically drew this piece to challenge myself. Although Architecture is my passion. I wanted to draw other things to expand my Artistic view.
