Penguin (2018) Drawing by Jamila Rizgalla

I am an autodidact artist, veterinarian by education. Started painting and drawing since childhood, and never stooped. Took part in group exhibitions and individual exhibitions in Libya and abroad. I am interested in the movement, the expression of emotions, triggered by everyday events. Epigrams often accompany drawing phases.
