I’m Munira, an Artist & Illustrator. I use digital art as my main artistic medium. I started my art journey from a very young age. From there I evolved from traditional art to Digital Art.
Munrae Painter Founder
I create art every day as a way to express myself & to keep the boredom away. Art for me is more than just a degree, it’s my entire future.

“ Embrace your mistakes & don’t try to be perfect. Sometimes, it’s okay to make mistakes. It’s a way to learn. Don’t be harsh on yourself & start your art journey from zero, no matter where you are at now“

I’m Bibo, a Kuwait-based artist who loves creating pieces that carry a part of me.
-Bibo
I mainly work with oils and acrylics, drawing inspiration from the things I connect with, whether it’s music, my favorite shows, or simply my own imagination.
“ To me, art isn’t only a form of self-expression, but also a form of self-connection. When I paint, I feel free from judgment. Even when my own judgment creeps in, I’m still in my own world, creating something that feels entirely mine. Painting gives me a space where I can explore my thoughts, emotions, and imagination freely, and that sense of freedom is what keeps me coming back to art. “

Sheikha Al Habshi is an artist, illustrator and designer based in Kuwait.
-Sheikha
Sheikha’s art is mainly centred around identity and self care as a form of coping in a highly technological age. Being torn between tradition and the constant change of the online arena, her art focuses on women and other marginalized figures seen in Kuwait and the Middle East, and how these figures evolve in digital spaces as well as in more conservative settings.
She uses her art as her own way of taking up space, raising questions of gender roles and sexuality in a culture where tradition and privacy play an important role. Sheikha is comfortable working with traditional materials such as paint and markers alongside more digital programs such as Adobe and Procreate.
“My work centers around comics and illustration; it helps me pay attention to the world around me best.”
