About Me

Sahar Riaz

Hi, I am an Independent Artist

Today, I would like to share my journey—a journey that taught me that while problems may seem
too big, we often underestimate our ability to handle them.
It wasn’t easy, but standing here today, I can proudly say that I worked hard, putting in long days
and nights to get to this point. I had every opportunity to quit, which would have been the easy
way out, but instead, I pressed on to accomplish everything I was told I couldn’t.
This story is dedicated to anyone who has questioned my abilities or hindered my success.

I am from Pakistan, and I studied fine arts and painting at my university. I have always been drawn to art. Through my strokes, I told stories that I found difficult to express in words. Using painting as a form of communication allowed me to connect with myself and convey feelings that words often failed to capture. I once reached the lowest point in my life. Despite feeling lost, I did my best to remain strong in front of my children and parents. Without a job or a home, I found myself alone, reflecting on my life. In that moment, I decided to paint again after many years. I started by painting my daughter’s portrait. Then, encouraged by a friend who had stood by me during my struggles, I painted his portrait, which everyone loved. Since that day, I haven’t put down the paintbrush. After my first art exhibition, titled “Resurgence,” in May 2022, I have transformed my life. Today, I am a successful realtor, an off-roader, a certified life coach, an artist, an NLP coach, a hypnotist, a happy wife, and a proud mother. Life is never flawless, and achieving our dreams does not come easy, but I’ve found that if you try hard enough, you can accomplish anything. Thank you, Abbu, for believing in me and reminding me that no effort is wasted!
