” Your own art journey is your ultimate masterpiece.”
I am a self-taught visual artist from Cairo, Egypt, who enjoys coloring her life.
I have not always been painting, in fact creating art is a discovery I made about myself only a few years back … and it felt like meeting a new me, as if unleashing some dormant power that was hidden inside.
By profession, I am an engineer and on the artistic side, I am also an amateur photographer. I love abstract, expressionist and figurative art, but in my heart, there is a special place for fluid painting, in which I find comfort and happiness, and where my whole art experience started.
I started painting in 2019 and since, manipulating colors to express myself has become my ever-growing passion. Every time I begin with a void space, the desire to deepen my art experience increases. Through many trials and attempts, successes and failures, I have come to learn that:
It is never about the outcome, it is all about your own journey with art, which in itself is in every way rewarding.
I use acrylic as a medium and paint on different surfaces: canvas, wood, ceramic and paper. I enjoy creating my own canvases and love trying out new textures and new painting techniques.
In February 2021, I exhibited my artwork for the first time, I joined a number of other Egyptian artists for a group exhibition in a Cairo based Art Gallery.
Inspired by my passion for mixing colors, I chose to name my art space and brand “Mazeej Art by Christine Arida” … hope you enjoy the browsing.
