Bangladesh I am Specialized in Oriental Arts. I have been too much obsessed with Art since my childhood. Passed out with great experience and now I am carrying and studying on with creative art work It’s my passion to say that I love to explore and go for more with research work. Abstract work is bit less absent in my work. being an artist but if catches my eyes and feelings with colours of different combination and composition .But I like to take brush and colours from semi realistic to realistic work. At present within my work shows I have mixed media, where I have included collage, wood crumbs, glass paint with acrylic, sometimes oil or charcoal, ink, pen and other different materials to bring up with great form to create an interesting Painting. My subject matters are common to my surroundings with reality of people’s life, animals and nature. I do work for myself and specially spectators or viewers and feel wonderful when I throw colours into a new Art work if it is appreciated by them. Mostly I try to relate myself with my heavenly creation whatever new ideas that flourishes through what I dream of.
