'Colours' in Arabic.

Taking the lead...

I started this little project in January 2024 just before buying my drawing tablet.

These warm, nostalgic memories of me colouring include my hobby where I used to collect fun stickers when I was little to forget the problems at home, as my Love❤️Letters service professes,
