"Often, we as artists are so focused on having a signature style and a sellable one and are too scared to play around. But I truly believe growth comes from curiosity, exploration, and genuinely enjoying the process of making art."

Meet Nabeela Rumi, an Indian illustrator living in Canada. (@nabeelarumi). She dabbles in lots of mediums, but is known for her striking acrylic and gouache paintings. 

Nebeela did not always imagine she would be an artist and is living her dream creating full time. She's a big believer that people should create art for themselves, not others, and stay true to themselves.
