About The painter,
Through his unique and dynamic talents, Aziz, a self taught artist, established himself as one of the premiere contemporary glass painters.
Aziz has traveled extensively throughout Africa, Europe, and South America, absorbing the art and cultures of diverse environments. These experiences have greatly enhanced the artist’s seemingly limitless repertoire and creative energy.
About The Work
Theissoise, reversed painting on glass, is a process that involves applying color to the glass in the exact reverse process involved when painting on any other surface. The process is a detailed and a painstaking method as each color is applied separately. Brushes and various other tools are used to give continuity, contrast and texture to the finished work. Rich in symbolism, the artist’s work captures the spirit and ambiance of the universal experience.
Other Mediums
Color-graph is a unique art in and of itself. The artist has designed and developed a printing press that enables him to produce original color graph print with multicolor in a single run. The illustration is carved from various materials with an illustration board. Due to the process of extreme pressure being applied in the making of the print, the plate has very limited use. Each color graph is an original.
Additional mediums include, water color, mix media and oil.
