Welcome to Randa Saab Art
Welcome to my website.
I am a British Lebanese artist living in Rochester, Kent, UK.
Although I have always enjoyed painting, however, I only started painting full time following my graduation with a BA in Fine Arts in 2020.
I believe in practicing art for the sake of art, and I enjoy experimenting with forms, colours, mediums and ideas. For me, Art is an experiment, a tool of self exploration, and a source of joy.
