The beginning

Hi Steemians,

Happy to join you ... Well, with you Fayçal (Faysal or if you want Fay) from Algiers, capital of Algeria (North Africa), senior specialist process and quality, in a multinational telecommunication company ..

Father for two adorable little girls .. ^_^

Now, let's move on to something else, so I've been collecting little bits of paper since I was young, and over time so fast (over twenty years) I've become a proven philatelist, which is far from a professional of course .. You will ask me the question: "But why do you collect them ?!", Bah .. Simply because I like colors, especially small colored objects, adding to that of the fudicial value it becomes a coctail of passion well dosed ^_^.

And to talk about philately, it requires documentation

(The photo you see, it's me at the first national philatelic exhibition in november 2017, explaining to Madam, the Minister of Telecommunications and Post, as well as the Minister of Culture who doesn't appear well - it is the third guy, after the two gentlemen in glasses - also the Governor of Algiers who is just next to me, and the Director General of the Algerian Post, the theme of endangered animals living only in Algeria).

Also; I exert another passion, which is the Arabic calligraphy .. Yes, a story that fascinated me in high school ... A magic that captivates the eyes .. Yes, yes, even the great painter of modern times , Picasso, was seduced, admitting that: "The culmination I reached in art drawing, Arabic calligraphy has preceded me for a long time" ...

It's not just about writing lines but as François Cheng had said: "The trait is not an end in itself. It is, rhythm and volume combined, the initial gesture of a figure who from all eternity must come: the sign. Through the sign, man reveals himself to the infinity of his desire ... "

Talking about calligraphy requires another very deep subject in itself .. Maybe one day I'll write you a little article ...

I leave you below, a small modest framework developed for the international festival of calligraphy and ornament in Algiers of the year 2016 ...

Love drawing, painting .. Beginner in e-commerce .. And sometimes likes to write small stories here and there ..

I hope I will not be heavy for you ^_^

I am embarking on this new world, and hoping that I will have some help to better understand the functioning of this fabulous site.

Thanking you endlessly

NB: I apologize for my English, which isn't famous
