She studied Art in Paris at L’Ecole Superieure d’Art Privee Francoise Conte for five years and currently teaches Art at Gulf English School in Kuwait. Fahim Hamid Ali, a renowned Pakistani-Canadian artist from Toronto, Canada who has been doing art exhibitions all over the world will be returning back to Kuwait to showcase his unique style of art. The ‘Spiritual Reflections’ exhibition will demonstrate creative works of art as a tool and a platform to promote the message of reconnecting back to the Supreme Being. It provides an opportunity for two talented artists to showcase their work which is so diverse in style yet conveys similar messages to the viewer. It hopes to engage the audience to reflect and search within for answers and find peaceful solutions to the current problems/issues facing us today. It hopes to attract many audiences from students to adults and from many social, cultural and community groups in Kuwait. [link]

Passing on Your Collection to Another Generation

By Ernest Disney-Britton Our living room in downtown Indianapolis This house (in Indiana) allowed us to explore everything, but today is moving day! It was a maximalist experience for two minimalists who love to collect. We sold off multiple collections, including snow globes, Mary sculptures, paperweights, Disney plates, nutcrackers, 21c penguins, walking canes, and 100 prints and paintings! Most of it was in storage, but plenty was on display. We did it by inviting our community of artists and collectors to an estate sale before opening it to the public. Congratulations to the new owners. We hope your collections continue to grow. Goodbye, Indiana!
