Our World: Jeddah Art Classes on the Street


Dia Aziz Dia is one of Jeddah's most famous and beloved fine artists. His gallery is located in Jeddah's old historic district called Al Balad.


Directly outside his art gallery in Al Balad, he often conducts evening art lessons, sharing his knowledge and talent with other aspiring artists.


His distinct style of using light in his paintings brings his subject to life in a magical way.  Much of art depicts memories from his childhood growing up in Jeddah.  To see some of Dia's art, CLICK HERE.


Below is a photo of me with the revered artist Dia Aziz Dia (on the left). It was an honor to meet him and see the great work he is doing for budding artists in the historic part of Jeddah.

  1. A welcoming gallery, and fine style. There were a number of artists represented when Saudi Arabia had their embassy day here some weeks back as part of our welcoming the world series, which I'll be featuring tomorrow. I found the artistic styles quite vivid.
