Artist Statement for Syed Arif
|
|
|
I enjoy painting realistic as well as abstract mostly in watercolors. As an artist I love to do human forms for its naturally wonderful structure, color and texture. I also paint in mixed media (Oils, Pencil, Pastels). But watercolor remains my personal favourite as I finds it quiet amazing to use and experiment for its versatality.
I never had any formal training to say so, nor I joined any fine arts school, what ever I did and doing it’s my own experience with paintings.
I started at the age of 8 when I was in 3rd std. since then I am my own teacher. I did take references from reputed artist from time to time for self improvement.
I don’t like using watercolors as they are meant to be, rather I like to paint them drier, like acrylic or oils may be.
I love doing abstract things, anything in precise, figures, still-life, landscapes, flowers and many thing.
But as I have already mentioned I am carving to do realistic human nudes, getting hands on them on the lines of Michael Angelo and Da Vince, they were great artists. Been practising a lot.
I hate sticking to routine things, that’s why keep experimenting with different media from time to time.
Right now I am more into oils. Doing landscape of my home town Hyderabad on the lines of famous Venice.
Never know what I will do tomorrow.
Thanks a lot for going through my page. Kindly let me know your comments.
