Azim, who is 33 years old, shared with the correspondent that he is originally from the village of Jëngish, located in the Jeti-Oguz district.
“I have five brothers and sisters in my family. In 2017, I graduated from the Mining Institute and I am a mining engineer by profession. I had never engaged in drawing before; I just collected pieces of candy. One day, I thought about what I could do with such a large number of candies and decided to create a portrait of the president, who selflessly works for the good of our country. I reached out through my social media page with the proposal, and today I am very happy that I was able to present my work to our president,” he noted.
The portrait was created from 3,100 pieces of candy that were collected by hand.
