Amal's work covers a spectrum of books, magazines, posters, and cover art. Her work is influenced by a lifelong interest in multiculturalism and any excuse to research a good story. A fascination with various materials stems from her studies in the conservation of art on paper and is often incorporated into the work. Amal's art has been featured in museums and include pieces now held in private collections. She received her MFA in illustration from the Academy of Art University, San Francisco. Her illustrations for the picture book Al-Hirrah Reeshah, published by Tamer, was nominated for the 2022 IBBY Honor List and her author-illustrated picture book My Key, published 2021, was the first American winner of Clavis Publishing's Key Colors Competition. |
