Artist Profile

My name is Hessa Ahmed Al Mahmoud, an Emirati artist and designer with a lifelong passion for creativity. From a young age, I have explored many forms of art — from traditional painting to digital design — always searching for ways to express stories, emotions, and heritage through visual language.

 

In a world where technology moves at incredible speed, I believe it’s important to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with ourselves. Through my art, I invite people to pause, relax, and enjoy the simple pleasures of life — a brush on paper, the beauty of nature, or the quiet rhythm of color and form.

 

My work often draws inspiration from Emirati culture, botanicals, and storytelling, creating pieces that feel both rooted and imaginative. Alongside my own practice, I host art classes in Abu Dhabi, where I guide others to discover the joy of watercolor painting and creative expression.

 

Through my website, I share my original artworks, art kits, and workshops, opening a space where creativity becomes not only an art form, but also a way of connecting with culture, beauty, and the self.
