Mireille Botros Artist |Painter

Mireille Botros is a British-Egyptian self-taught painter based in Saltaire, Yorkshire. An emerging artist, she explores the relationship between human emotion, colour, and the expressive form. Working primarily in oils, she uses vibrant tones to paint her subjects, mainly portraits and figures, though she occasionally paints still life or animals when she feels like it. Her work conveys personal narratives and moments of vulnerability, aiming to resonate through shared feeling and emotional honesty. Mireille’s intuitive use of colour captures mood and energy, transforming lived experiences into emotive, relatable imagery. She has exhibited in Cairo, Saltaire, and Halifax, and aspires to continue exhibiting across the UK and internationally. Community plays a vital role in her practice. She is the founder of Creative Social Saltaire, a monthly gathering of artists and creatives that nurtures connection, support, and artistic growth.
