Artist statement

Watercolour medium holds its unique place around the world and its currently the world most popular & famous medium. I am also a madman of this medium with my childhood. The beauty of watercolour medium is that it should be reached as its need. The choice of perfect colours, softness, quick strokes, light & darkness the ratio of distance & closeness are the most important attributes of the medium. Visitors can tell where i am successful in that attempt. I am in Lahore since 2008, the rest of time spend in Karachi where watercolour is done very wildly. Watercolour is a beautiful & quick medium & difficult for some people’s too. My theme comes from old buildings and old streets to portraits in sufism. I dis first watercolour solo show on sufism in 2008 Lahore, Pakistan, which was very successful as well, thus the work on sufism began in the watercolour medium. Since 1992 a series of exhibitions began and so far many national and international exhibitions have been done.
