I draw for love and hope

By Souad Kokash

Morning came while my soul hugged Damascus, for “art is the common language between sensitive souls”. Hope still here, we still walking the road of love and peace.
I am here in the Netherlands. I have nothing but my art–it’s the only capable tool to delivery my voice worldwide. Colour and sensuality can conquer all hearts. For what comes from heart, goes to heart. The pain and hope inside me, can only express them with colours and art. I desire for God to give me power and inspiration, so I reach all hearts. So my message reaches the globe.
