ABOUT MARIAN MEKHAIL


 

In a nutshell:

Creator. Painter. Sketch Artist. Egyptian. Goofball. 

Based in Dallas, TX.

The long(er) version:

Mekhail’s mission as an artist is to inspire her audience to use the gifts they’ve been given, live fully in their purpose and to seek beauty in all things, all people and all colors. Her Egyptian heritage influences much of her work, subject matter and creative process.

In 2019, Mekhail held her first solo exhibition “Queendom”, which had over 250 attendees and raised over $2,000 for the Women’s Center of Ft. Worth. She was also commissioned by Dallas Theater Center to create an interactive mural for its Public Works Theater at the Wyly Theater production of "As You Like It" by William Shakespeare. In 2021, she was commissioned by President Michael Sorrell of Paul Quinn College to create a custom crushed glass portrait of prominent Dallas businessman and philanthropist Mr. Trammell S. Crow.

In her latest collection “MAKTUB: It Is Written”, she explores topics surrounding modern feminism while also celebrating ancient Egyptian mythology. The collection’s opening reception hosted over 400 attendees and raised over $1,500 for Coptic Orphans.

One of the rising star artists in her community, Mekhail has also created for celebrities such as American actor, author and stand-up comedian D.L. Hughley; record executive, producer and director Damon Dash; NFL players Andre Johnson, Derrick Henry and Marcus Martin; NBA players Ian Mahinmi and Royce O'Neal and WBC Champion Boxers Jermall Charlo and Anthony Dirrell.
