Hi Shahira,
So proud to see a young girl (a lady now) from my hometown show such talent in Art. Would like to see more pieces of your pottery and paintings. Beautiful work. I paint Wildlife in acrylic and would like to share that with you if you care to see it.

Shahira is indeed prolific, considering that this is only a hobby for her. We need to see her at her other passion, competitive squash, and at her job, immigration consultant. Good job, kiddo!
It is wonderful to get to know such Ismaili talents of present day. Keep up the good work.
A talented artist.
