About me
and JJ-Stache

With ambition as my key and being inspired by the aspiring artist is what I love to see. Born in Jordan, Iraqi roots and The Netherlands is my home since 1996. In 1993 we fled from Iraq to Jordan when my mother was pregnant with me. With my two older sisters, one older brother and my parents (father and mother) we had to wait for 3 years in Jordan before there was a country accepting Refugees. It was the year 1996 when we got in The Netherlands and since then we have been here. A place where I always felt home, but yet, sometimes, I feel like a wanderer in a strange land. A Misfit to those who doesn’t fit, but a misfit that accepts his past and future as it is. Where change is my goal, where happiness is my muse and where I have this “Pay it forward” mentality fuse..

Let’s begin at the ending: The proud owner of my following content “JJ-Stache”. A nickname given by one of my followers. I started sharing my work when the Covid pandemic started in 2020. A time where we all could reflect our precious given time and to be remembered that life wasn’t only just given easily, but also reminded us that It can be taken away as simple as one, two, three. After planning, writing and setting goals for myself I decided to share my work with you guys, and as I love to share my work I too want to help one another misfit that I could inspire as they inspired me, Hence ‘Where the artist meets art, page.
