Meet Neyara Omeily,
aka Yara
Hi! I'm Yara and I'm five years old. I love drawing flowers, animals, and everything colorful. My favorite tools are my color pencils (especially the sparkly ones) and my watercolor set that makes the paper look like magic.
My daddy says I've been drawing since I was two. I don't remember that but I believe him! 😊

✦ Her Journey
Growing Up in Color
A little history of Yara's artistic adventures, one milestone at a time.
✦
Age 2 — The Beginning
First drawing ever
Yara picked up a crayon and drew a circle. "That's the sun," she said. It was the start of everything.
✦
Age 3 — First Colors
Discovered color pencils
Gifted a 24-pack of color pencils. She sorted them by color, named each one, and refused to share them.
✦
Age 4 — Watercolors
First watercolor painting
A butterfly painted entirely in purple. "Butterflies can be purple if they want," she explained with authority.

Age 5 — Today
