Channeling a creative mind into a passion for art

Ever since she was young, it was clear that Budour Abdullah Al Ali’s mind worked differently from other people.

She would visualize everything she heard or learned, with pictures and characters randomly appearing in her head.

“If a picture was taken in the morning, I would visualize it at noon, at sunrise, at night and would spend hours picturing how the place in the scene looked in the past and how it could look in the future,” she said.

While her creative mind caused some problems in her childhood, she is now putting her passion for drawing to good use.
