Wrapping up Febuary!

Hello Friends! I hope you all had a fun and productive Febuary. It’s been a busy one for me juggling work as an author and illustrator. I have done my first school visit for my picture book -Aliya’s Secret. It was really gratifying to share the story with grade 2 students at Kingsview Village School in Toronto, their attention didn’t waver from the reading and loved doing arts and crafts afterwards. It’s always a success when the teacher tells you that they couldn’t stop talking about how much they enjoyed the reading. With the month of Ramadan around the corner , I have been booking to visit several schools for book presentations of Aliya’s Secret: A Story of Ramadan.

Dino’s and more

My licensing agent wanted me to create some wall for a Nursery or a child’s room, so I did a collection of 4 jungle animals and 4 different types of dinosaurs, which has inspired me to create stories to go with them. I am working on a variety of ideas, the fun part of being an author illustrator, doesn’t matter what comes first- the story or the drawings.

Some Good News to Share!

I was thrilled to bits to find out that my image for The GREAT OUTDOORS CHALLENGE with #theydrawandtravel #theydrawandgarden and #uppercasemag was one of the 15 images to be featured in the next issue of the Uppercase magazine.

Illustrating whimsical houses can be super fun. Having these samples in your portfolio can definitely widen your scope.
