iccha (2015) Painting by Sabir Haque

Artist statements :
MY CANVAS IS THE MIRROR THAT LOOKS INSIDE MY INNER WORLD
Pursuing the long winding trail of a humble artists career, I have had to sketch and draw many thing…. Flora and fauna, animals and humans and also human habitations.I have always found that it is not an easy task to keep one self on the trail of creativity,it always amazes one how Nature has decorated herself with stones in particular. The balancing stone or hoodoos stir me deeply.I amaze and amaze at the artistry of nature to have balanced such great boulders, one upon the other.
Become my obsession, I have fallen in love with stone. Thus stone has become a main subject in my paintings. When I see and touch them, I feel they have life, human shape and characters with their words, they are performing like actors…sometimes my stones fly with the clouds, sometimes my stones floating in the water, my stones can love like couple, sometime do some other things.
Imagination fantastical is ingrained in to us and we love to fantacise… so we long for unattainable to attains. A bard adorns his ditty with the words beautiful and creates his verse. He is an artist who draws picture with words, in place of words, I use paint and brush to make mine poems subline.
My paintings express my thought and emotions blended with an interpretation of our physical world.
