Asheville Gallery of Art in Asheville, NC, Features Works by Sahar Fakhoury

For the month of March, the Asheville Gallery of Art in Asheville, NC, will host an exhibit of works by Asheville painter Sahar Fakhoury titled Some Times Some Where. Beginning with her childhood years, Fakhoury has always been fond of drawing and painting, however, she did not have the opportunity to attend art school. She graduated from a computer institute. But her love for art pushed her to take lessons from a professional artist for two years, and from another artist for one more year. She exhibited her work in several art galleries in Kuwait, where she was living at the time.

After the Gulf war in 1990, she moved to Asheville with her husband and three daughters, and took some time to raise her family and adapt to her new home. She attended several workshops, has been part of a live drawing group, and is now a student at the UNC-Asheville, working toward her BFA degree.

Fakhoury works with watercolor and oil paints. The majority of her paintings revolve around the human figure.
