About Sumaiya
Hello there! I am a Canadian-Caribbean (22) neurodivergent/disabled and non-binary AFAB individual, I use they/them pronouns. A lot of my work and lessons take on an intersectional lens. My top priority is to create a safe space for individuals to create themselves and reclaim their power as creator beings. Ever since I was a young child, my passion for art has known no boundaries. I made sure I took initiative to cultivate and nurture this natural desire to create. By the time I was ten years old, I was already taking fashion history courses and I was blessed enough to receive mentoring from an illustrative Professor at Parsons School Of Design. This is just one aspect of my journey as an artist as I've had extensive experience in creative direction for music festivals, creative production assisting for commercial sets and professional photography and graphic design items for PR initiatives and landscape design. I only hope to share more of my journey and get to know yours through our lessons!

Do you need a supportive Artistic guide that can create a meaningful and free form learning/experimental experience that enriches your spirit and builds on how you partake in self-care? I'm an easygoing and self-taught/self-employed artist of 10+ years. My services would be most appropriate for Trans/Non-binary and neurodivergent youth who struggle with finding a safe space to be themselves and experiment with their passions and hobbies. During my lessons, I'm able to offer you support as a guide through developing your own concepts and art pieces. I'd also be happy to create an art project and lesson plan we can work on together during our session! If you have any ideas for what you'd like to work on/learn, I'd love to hear it! I could mentor you in anything from clay sculpting to jewelry making and collaging. My mediumship within the art world is pretty expansive, just say the word, I'm also learning too! ;)

Sumaiya is one of the most thoughtful person I know. They accomodate their space and material they know to make me understand. When they saw that I was having trouble to understand a concept, they would pull out visuals and other practical means to help me. They are patient and understanding but know how to convey the information precisely without wasting time. This helped me a lot given that I had limited time to study. I spent a few hours only with them but I learnt a lot. They create a safe, non-judgemental space to ask questions and educate yourself. They are honest and are very in touch with themselves.
They care about getting the information across and ensure that I understood it. That caring nature is one of the many reasons why they'd be great to teach younglings.View more recommendations
