as i was saying, sick and tired of faces. pond, 2014, acrylic on canvas, 90 x 150 cm
So a face invariably shows up when I least expect it, especially when I’m trying my best not to paint one. I just can’t help it I guess. I have to say I am finally happy with this painting. Read More

just taking it easy
It pains me to say that I have completely lost interest in painting faces (and figures by extension). I’ve been struggling with this for weeks now. My heart just isn’t in it anymore. Is this some sort of a reaction to something? I don’t know. I don’t know what the thing is, nor what the reaction to it would be. All I know is I feel almost repulsed by the faces I’ve been attempting to paint. I am enjoying this though. Very, very much. Even though it’s turned to shit. Read More

I’ve always liked Monira Al Qadiri. Not solely for her talent but because she is humble and obsessive and laughs when she talks about her work. I didn’t know what to expect when I visited the Sultan Gallery last night to see Monira’s Muhawwil. And I’m so glad I didn’t, because I think the impact was so much stronger for it. So in a way, for those of you who do plan to go and see it, this might be a bit of a spoiler. The exhibition is on for two more nights at the Sultan Gallery from 6-9 pm. Read More

heidi & jacqueline } the original
As this drawing came to completion with the woman in red ink, I was reminded immediately of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, hence the title. It has that quality of good and evil, soft and hard. Although one thing I can never remember is which of the two was the monster. Read More
