Saudi artist Mohammed Farea’s art was inspired by a mud house in Abha, the capital of Asir province in Saudi Arabia, a dear place to him.

Thanks to the influence of his hometown, Farea maintained his classical style of painting untouched by the rapid changes of modern time.

 “My home is where I belong, and when I draw it, I do it with a heart full of emotion,” Farea said.

Muhammad Farea holds a higher diploma in computer graphics and quantities from the technical faculty since 1992. 

He is member of the Saudi Arabia association for culture and arts and is a founding member of the al-Riyadh artistic collection. Farea received a medallion of appreciation from His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Nawaf bin Abdul-Aziz for organizing and participating in the exhibition held on the margin of conference on the Euro-Saudi relations in 1999 in Rome.
