Kimia Maleki 26 years old From Iran

Profile I recently earned my Master's degree in Economics from Shaheed Beheshti University of Iran. Painting is one of my hobbies, and though I'm not a specialist in art, I have created many pieces while listening to music. My works often illustrate my feelings and thoughts, helping me manage my emotions and find calm.

Objective I aim to enter my existing paintings into your contest to assess whether pursuing art more seriously and professionally is worthwhile. I also wish to seize the opportunity to participate and try my luck.
