MAISAA AL MANNAI

I’m Maisaa Al Mannai, a self-taught Qatari artist drawn to the world of oil colors—especially the rich texture. I never really chose art… it chose me. I’ve always felt something pull me toward colors, textures, and the quiet magic of creating.

 

Whenever I paint, I feel like I find myself again. It’s where I go to breathe, to feel, and to simply be. Each piece I create carries a part of my story—my thoughts, my emotions, and the things I often can’t put into words.

 

Through thick strokes and bold colors, I try to capture moments of stillness, of strength, of softness. This journey is not just about art—it’s about coming home to myself, again and again.
