A rich experience in the field of portrait painting, during which the young woman, Duha Hammoud, from Tartous governorate, presented many distinguished paintings.
Regarding her adoption of the art of portraiture , the 24-year-old artist Hammoud expressed to SANA that nature, life and love are things that cannot be drawn and embodied through paintings.
The young artist , who is a graduate of information and communication technology engineering, believes that this field is not far from art, but rather that there is a deep link between them.
Hammoud spoke about the support of her parents over the past years for her talent in the art of portraiture and their constant encouragement to her in order to continue.
In addition to mastering the art of portraiture, Hammoud learned Diwani calligraphy to give her paintings more brilliance, stressing that the calligraphy has its charm and attractiveness, which prompted her to use letters in her paintings, to receive requests for such paintings.
Hammoud’s talents were not limited to drawing and calligraphy as she cares about everything related to numbers and the development of mental abilities, so she mastered mental arithmetic and devoted some of her time to teaching children drawing, calligraphy and arithmetic.
“I aspire to become experienced in the art of portraiture, hold solo exhibitions and attend the exhibitions of major artists to benefit from their experiences” the young artist concluded.
