Shejuti Taleb
My personal Astrological chart says that people with my configuration make excellent writers. may be, this is why each and every piece of my art work tells a story.
I always know what to say and I can write pages on a particular piece; as it includes my cultural background and influences, Western style of painting as I have studied Fine Art only in that particular Style in my native country, Bangladesh, India, England and here in USA and Spiritual significance as i ahve been followed by 11:11 since 2009, to say the least.

Getting back to my paintings, each and every decision that I take when using colour, line, mark, drawing, paint, pencil, etc was never taken in trivial manner. each and every stroke has a reason to be, where it is. I always try to do my very best in my art work as it represents me. in order to take a break from my usual story telling, I do abstract art and therefore they are often very simple and much less intense. I use Bangla and English Calligraphy in repetition. Agnes Martin is a huge influence on me.
Being a Pisces, all I can say is that I am very hopeful about my career as Neptune is coming to stay in my Zodiac Sign from February 2012 and will be staying there for the next 13 years......I wish take full advantage of this great opportunity as it is happening after 165 years. I don't kknow yet, if I would be a great writer but I sure do know that Fine Art is in my blood, past, present and future. I was named Shejuti on my 4th birthday by the famous Bangladeshi artist Shahabuddin.
As my art works are meant to belong to someone else, be visually pleasing to the viewer and adorn someone else's wall, I'd rather haave the owner tell his/her own story by looking at my work. "I know what I have said but I'd like to know what you have to say".
I work mostly in oil paint. These days, my focus is on works on paper. I do enjoy acrylic. I am working independently and commissions are also welcome.

I looked upon every Cross, in every church,
yet He was not there.
I went to the temples of India
and the shrines of China
yet He was not there.
I searched the mountains of Herat and Candalar
yet He was not there.
I scaled the distant peak of Mount Qaf
only to find
the empty nest of the Phoenix.
I visited the Ka’be
but He was not in that tourist site
amidst the pilgrims young and old.
I read the books of Avicenna
but His wisdom went beyond all the words.
I went to the highest court,
within the distance of “two-bow lengths,”
yet He was not there.
Then I looked within my own heart
and there I found Him-
He was nowhere else.
