Hi, my name is Aysel. My journey with drawing started when I was little. My mom saw me drawing, unlike my brother who used to scribble everywhere. I used to color carefully without messing up. At that time, my mom felt I had a talent, so she started giving me courses. So, I started loving it a long time ago when I was little, and my mom encouraged me
The most important thing I learned in the drawing course I took with Miss Mona Sleem is that the drawing doesn’t have to be perfect because nothing is perfect. I learned to draw for fun, not as a drawing that’s supposed to be a masterpiece. It’s a time when we draw and don’t think about anything else except drawing. I feel like ideas come out with the drawing, and how to draw an outline is the basis of all drawing for me






What I love most about drawing time is that it’s generally enjoyable. It makes a person be themselves more. It might have made me more true to myself. The time I felt most proud was when I drew a portrait. It was the first time I drew after a long break. I drew with my soul, and even though the drawing might turn out good, we shouldn’t judge it from the beginning. Since then, I’ve returned to drawing, and I want to improve myself more. By the way, I have other skills. I used to read novels. Generally, I feel novels have things like books; they have a story, and you learn things from them too. I also play kickboxing, and I’m talented in it. It’s a very enjoyable sport, but it needs someone who understands it well. I used to do many other things when I was little, like piano, ballet, and gymnastics. These are the things I was good at.
I feel that every practice where you discover talent is more special than any other practice you do, and every practice has something special



Drawing is important to me, and it’s a talent I don’t want to waste. It will benefit me when I grow up in my work and in my life. It’s a time when I have fun and enjoy myself, and I love it
The ways and fields where I can use drawing are many. For example, in school, it can help with drawing on the wall for things the school needs, or a painting someone wants, or a gift for a friend. But I feel it benefits more in work, if you’re an engineer or in fine arts, of course
The people who encouraged and inspired me the most in drawing are my mom, more than anyone, and my dad, and I thank them very much
My advice to someone learning to draw but feels they aren’t talented enough Don’t give up Talent often grows with practice. Just enjoy the process of drawing, and you might surprise yourself with what you can create over time. Everyone starts somewhere, and the most important thing is to keep exploring and having fun with it
When I think about my future, I want to be a doctor. But I might change my mind; people change every year, so it’s natural for ideas to change. But honestly, I don’t know how drawing can help in being a doctor, but I can do things related to drawing alongside being a doctor, God willing
My last piece of advice is: try not to be lazy in drawing, and if you really have a talent, don’t waste it so you don’t regret it later. And even if you don’t have a talent, try and learn and keep trying, and you might discover that you have one that you just didn’t see before
It warms my heart to hear Aysel share her journey. I remember clearly when we first started back in 2020, even before the world changed with the pandemic. Aysel was a bright spark even then. When we had to move our art sessions online during the lock down, her enthusiasm never wavered. In fact, she embraced it and continued to learn and grow beautifully What makes Aysel special is not just her talent, which has blossomed so much through her hard work, but also her unique way of seeing things and learning. She has a style all her own, and she’s always eager to improve



I truly believe that Aysel has a very bright future ahead of her. Whether she chooses to focus on art professionally or explore other paths, her dedication, her passion for learning, and her perseverance will lead her to great success. She is an inspiration, and I am so proud to have been a part of her artistic beginnings. Keep shining, Aysel
