About Kazin Khaleel
Kazin Khaleel is an Iraqi female, born on January 24th, 2005, and a self-taught artist.
Kazin's love for art started at 13 after she immigrated to the USA with her family. She wanted to create something that distracted her from her bullies and that she could use to express her emotions. This is when she found a fashion design sketch on YouTube. She followed the tutorial step by step and was amazed by what she had created. She wanted to become a very well-known fashion designer and to this day she is still in love with fashion. She then started selling her art around the school and making a commission off of it from classmates.
After kazin discovered Jono Dry the hyperrealistic artist, she got inspired and wanted to try out that style of art. She created her first portrait by the age of 14, which was a Justin Bieber drawing. Kazin believed that she had a talent, that needed to be discovered.
When the pandemic hit, Kazin had nothing to do but spend her whole day drawing. From there she grew her art skills, and day by day Kazin was becoming better and better. With the support of her parents and close friends, kazin shares her art with the world on social media.
Kazin is still living in the U.S. When she's not drawing, she enjoys cooking, dancing and walking in nature.
