Palestinian Kholoud El-Desouki, 23-year-old, paints using cosmetics and makeup tools, at her house in Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip, August 12, 2015. Artists of Gaza Strip witnessed a gradual shortage of art supplies since the Israeli blockade in 2007, scarcity increased during the last months and they begun using colors that are not suited for painting or not intended for artistic purposes, beside blocking many of them from allowing international exhibitions, El-Desouki said.
