Hello!

My name is Suhaila, the artist behind artfully dirtied…

Hi, I'm Suhaila, and I have a passion for both art and architecture. By day, I work as a full-time architectural draftsperson, bringing my technical skills and attention to detail to the designs of buildings. But in my free time, I pursue my love for the arts, particularly through watercolour painting.

I am proud to be one of the few Watercolour House Portrait artists in Melbourne. My unique style and attention to detail bring a special touch to each piece I create. Whether it's capturing the essence of a cherished family home or memorializing a special building, my house portraits are one-of-a-kind works of art.

Watercolor painting has always been a source of joy and challenge for me. Its fluidity and unpredictability make every piece unique and allow me to express myself creatively. While watercolour is my favourite medium, I also enjoy experimenting with different materials and techniques to keep my art fresh and evolving. Read about my explorations here.

What I find most fulfilling about being an artist is the personal connection I make with each piece I create and the emotions they evoke in others.
