Moroccan born Amid El Haddad studied at the school of fine arts in Brussels and it was here that watercolour became his favourite medium for rendering.

Faithful to the tradition of Impressionist painters, Amid is an avid Plein-Air painter, producing the majority of his work outdoors. This has helped, over the years, to develop a narrative and scenographic, which infuse a characteristic story into each painting.

Amid's current activity as a teacher and a tutor helps him to verbalise and share his craft, helping him to express his feelings more accurately and making his inner voice tangible.

Throughout the years, Amid has developed a relationship of spirituality towards watercolour. He considers the medium not as a tool, but respect and interact with it as a partner with its own pace and life cycle.
