Maria Saleh Mahameed: "Black charcoal is dominant in Saleh Mahameed’s work, lending itself to everything from architectural drawings, to sketching and scribbling, and provides for an intimate, sensitive, and tender mode of expression, thanks largely to the direct contact of the fingers with the drawing surface, as they smear, rub, and smooth the line." from her exhibit at the Herzliya Museum of Art
