Yasmina has been drawing and coloring / painting since she was a child. Though it's a given that all children do so, and are good at it, Yasmina had always something rather special in that area. There's something so sweet and beautiful about the way she expresses herself on paper.
Out of the devastating events of this summer past, and soon before and after the explosion of the Beirut port, she invested herself excessively in creating cute little artworks with acrylic on cardboard.
When we moved to the new place in Autumn, she kept going, beautiful things were blossoming from this urgent need of hers to create, and keep her mind and hands busy.
These are such unprecedented days. I can only imagine how hard it must be for a young woman in her age coming to life, to be thrown inside with no access to the outer world in the way it ought to be normally, nor her own world with her people and friends.
All is not lost though. Out of this darkness, a little light came to life. Today she officially released this concept / idea / project to the world, though she's still private about it.
She named it Jasmine Moon.
I'm happy for her.
