A chance to look back

Just wanted to reflect some thoughts through this post.

Sometimes you realize how much effort and love you put when you look back at work you put with honesty.

The exhibition was a success despite all the challenges faced, from time constrains and resources. Nevertheless, Birmingham school of art and the team and artist was supportive and made this event happen.

These are pictures from the event ( all images were obtained through Ulafaa's website)

This year has also been productive, including new mediums , new color pallets , film photography and so traveling, i guess ill leave many of these to new upcoming posts.

for now i leave you with a teaser of Ulafaa's new upcoming exhibition posters:

Thank you for visiting , and always stay thankful and loving.

Spending a Day with Ulafaa

Today we are thinking of exhibiting in a new space.  

The new exhibition will focus on the idea of language and missing links.

Images of brainstorming , so stay tuned for more ideas. 

Some experimentation

i had a sticker labeled “form” made about 6 years ago. Its very interesting going back and minipulating old work rather than just just throwing them away

these are some attempts at some changes to the design.

Current work

Been happy lately in integration couple of techniques and mediums in pieces.

It is an opportunity to use these methods on old illustration and make something creative out of them. 

Below if one of the illustrations I brought with me to the U.S. from Bahrain.

ill be updating work more frequently here so stay tuned. 

I am Khaleeji

I am happy and honored to exhibit with Ulafaa. This is an invitation to our exhibition in Birmingham, United Kingdom, titled “By the Book”.

Would live to have you visiting and attending the talk.

Back to University

It has been a long summer. I've been fortunate to see friends , loved ones and invest in my art , by seeking exhibition opportunities and developing my work.  

Ive been thinking lately wither I should start a Patreon page, for both exposure and independence through art. Other than that, I've been working on some beige and teal products ( beigeandteal.com ) so soon I'll upload pictures on some ceramic work both here and on B&T website.  

Below are are close ups for a piece that will be exhibited in Birmingham in a group exhibition with my buddies from Ulaafa , a Bahraini reconciliation initiative through creativity and art.
