Bored Panda got in touch with Mohamed to get to know more about his creative process and himself. We got curious about how his journey as an artist started. Mohamed revealed that he wanted to be an artist since he was a child. "I was fortunate to have a supportive family and the right circumstances to help me achieve this."
We asked Mohamed how he came up with the idea to create popular characters dressed up and looking like humans. Here's what the artist replied: "If you are familiar with the ancient Egyptian gods, they were drawn as a human body mixed with an animal head. This is exactly the mix I used but in a modern way."
"Every artist enjoys the whole creative process, but I think the hardest and most challenging part is deciding to start," Mohamed shared. According to the artist, surprise and wonder are the most common reactions he gets from his followers.
"For me, making art is like a vacation, it is a relief from the pressures of life."
After being asked about his upcoming projects, the artist replied that all of his art projects are continuous projects, which means they are constantly updated. "For example, the 'Real Toons' project was started with only 8 characters and now has over 60 characters and will continue to grow."
