About the Artist
I’m Zahra, a passionate artist dedicated to creating original, hand-painted silk artworks that capture the beauty of the world around us. For me, painting is more than just art—it’s a way of expressing emotion, telling stories, and bringing vibrant energy to life. Through my work, I invite you to experience the vivid, textured world I create on silk.
Each of my collections reflects a deep connection to nature, from the serene elegance of Abstract & Beyond, the mesmerising world of Ocean & Marine Life, to the intricate beauty of Flowers and the majestic allure of Wildlife. Every painting carries its own unique story, I take great pride in offering a variety of themes to suit every personal taste and style. And for those who are captivated by the skies, you can indulge in my breathtaking sunsets and starlit nights—moments frozen in time and forever captured on silk.
With over 2,000 years of tradition, I have mastered the ancient art of silk painting and fused it with my own innovative approach. The process involves a signature blend of wax, which I apply as a hot liquid to outline and define my designs. The signature wax creates an intricate barrier, allowing me to paint with vibrant colours that flow seamlessly and harmoniously across the silk bringing the painting to life.
What truly sets my work apart is the subtle yet captivating use of gold tones. These golden accents are carefully integrated into each piece, giving the artwork a luxurious, radiant quality. As the light catches the gold, it transforms, revealing new dimensions of depth and warmth. The fine details and textured lines created during the process add layers of complexity and beauty to every artwork, ensuring that no two pieces are ever the same.
Every painting I create is unique, handcrafted with love, care, and a deep respect for the timeless technique that brings it to life. My work isn’t just about decoration—it’s about inviting a piece of nature, emotion, and elegance into your home, offering you the opportunity to experience art in its most personal and expressive form. Thank you for taking the time to explore my art. I hope my creations bring as much joy and inspiration to you as they do to me painting them.
