*Special Graphic Arts Printing

Khalil studied Applied Arts at German University and loves to draw. She is now practicing hand drawing after mastering electronic drawing for years.

"I felt that I had the desire to do something with my hands more than working on the computer, so I first hand drew on paper and then print the drawings on a satin silk cloth. The soft and glossy material gave the designs a special distinction, " she noted.

* Autumn colors and Egyptian symbols

The designer adopted a set of strong explicit colors and blended them with boldness and professionalism, making each piece a standalone art piece.

She used birds and symbols of ancient Egypt, such as the hoopoe, lotus flowers, Egpyitna leopard, and falcon feathers.

The symbols intertwined together in a mix of art and refined taste that made each piece an artwork that distinguished its wearer.
