Happy Younan

Driven by a deep passion for art, Happy graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts and went on to earn a Master of Graphic Design. Over five years, she dedicated herself to intensive study, honing her skills and establishing a strong foundation in the field. Art has always held a special place in her life—an interest nurtured from a young age by her father. His guidance played a pivotal role in helping Happy discover and develop her talent. To this day, she cherishes the memories of him teaching her how to draw and paint.

Happy worked in different fields over the years, but eventually found her way back to her true passion, art.

In 2023, she resumed painting. Encouraged by her family, she started exploring ways to sell her artwork. She now paints from her home studio, creating artworks of nature. What began as a passion and hobby has evolved into a fulfilling career.

I create art because...

I create art because I see art in everything around me. The world constantly floods me with overwhelming emotions—moments, colors, textures, and stories that demand to be expressed. These feelings push me to pick up my brush and pour them onto the canvas. Painting is my way of translating what I feel inside into something others can see and feel too

I am different to most artists because...

I am different because I treat every piece like a conversation — I don’t start with a plan, but instead I let emotion lead the way

When you look at my art, the thing I want you to feel is...

the sense that you’re witnessing something true

The thing I most want to say to non-artists is...

Trust yourself. Everyone is an artist in their own way. You don’t have to create art to experience it deeply. Art is not just about making—it’s about feeling, seeing, and connecting. You can still taste the beauty of the world around you, in colors, sounds, words, and moments. Let yourself feel it. That, too, is art

I believe art is an important part of our lives because...

as it teaches to pause and notice beauty around us
