Eid Bazaar

I recently had a stall at the local Eid Bazaar selling some of my work. It was such a fun event and I had a great time meeting new people, making friends, and seeing people respond to my work. My friend Saba who was my moral support for the evening, along with my mom and my family really helped make the event so amazing and I couldn't have done it without them. I sold Eid cards, paintings, bottles that I painted among other things. Here are some pictures that Saba took from the Bazaar. 

My Business Cards

Circles

I was in Chicago this past weekend visiting my sister and her husband and came across this piece at World Market. I thought it was absolutely awesome. 

The circles, the colors, and the overlapping of color blocks. So, I decided to play with some circles of my own. 

These are both made on Cardstock/ sketchbook paper with pens. Just experimenting with black and white circles and then some colors. Circles with lots of details take forever, but well worth it. 

Mehndi Cards

Here are some cards that I made while trying to come up with a design for my sisters Mehdni (Henna) Party Invitation. The Mehndi is traditionally colorful and vibrant, and in my opinion is one of the most fun events of the wedding. Ours was all girls so there was music, dancing, some really funny skits, great food, and of course everyone got some Henna on them before they left. The colors got a little muted because of the scanning. 


All the cards are 4x6 inches and made on regular computer paper with PrismaColor Markers and PrismaColor Gold and Silver Paint Pens.

This is the one we ended up going with.
 It matched the best with the rest of the event invitations.
