A woman and her child (2009) Digital Arts by Wael Hamid

Since 7 years, I was much involved in digital art, and personally, I think that what we have reached in this field today, even if only a replica of what was existing before, it has still a major step added a lot to the digital art movement, and it foretells new values and dimensions could be discovered in future.

I was painting since I was 6, and was encouraged by my father who was a painter too, and may be still remember the odor of the white paper which my father used to buy for me, and how I was attracted to that odor, and followed everywhere it might spread!

When I was 9, in 1972, I joined the High Institute of Ballet in Cairo. But I believe, I couldn't forget painting although, and I kept on painting while I was still in the ballet school.

After 9 years, in 1982 I was graduated from the ballet institute in Cairo, and worked as a ballet dancer in the Cairo Ballet Company for 5 years, but during the 5 years, I joined the Faculty of fine arts in cairo where I studied painting there.

Now! I work in the advertising field, and I worked in many advertising companies since graduating, and although I have not exhibited my artworks so far, but I still keeping on producing art, and still have the faith in achieving my artistic goals.
