Mashael Fahad Al-Athel, a Saudi female artist who was born in Riyadh 1979. Ever since she first held a paintbrush Mashael knew that art would play a major role in her life. But just how major of a role she was yet to find out. If you see her work you would know that her passion for life and its expression is present in each of her pieces. Known to work at night, she finds that her creativity is most alive during the quietening of her surrounding. The romantic nature and stillness of the night have always been the perfect setting for her creativity to shine.

She used her art as her meditation for all her life as she also pursued her economics studies and business career. More than mere paintings Mashael is known for making statements. Her painting are usually on large canvas' and host an even larger message. Her deep rootedness in culture is a reoccurring theme in her work but with louder colors that reflect her personality and appetite for life. The love for culture mixed with the modernness of her thinking bridges a gap that makes her vision of the world so realistic and relatable as well as her artwork so desirable.
