Training and collections
I studied fine art and printmaking in Beirut before turning to large-scale abstract painting. My work is held in private collections in eight countries.
About me
Biography
**How my passion began.** My name is Dima Abboud. I was born in 1986 and live and work by the sea, where light and water shape almost everything I paint.
How I paint
Thick layers of oil, bold palette-knife strokes and bright, unexpected colour combinations, built up over several weeks per canvas.
