| This calligraphic work was originally commissioned for a tattoo design. As with many commissions, I first had to have the proverb translated into accurate and poetic Arabic before beginning the design process. | |

| The Arabic Script is the basis for one of the richest calligraphic artistic traditions in the world. The script is used in various forms to write Arabic, Persian (Farsi), Urdu, and several other languages. Historical forms, such as kufic, maghrebi, diwani, tuluth, nasta'liq, shekasteh are joined by a flourishing vocabulary of contemporary forms. Calligraphy commissions are welcomed for a wide range of uses, from body art to marriage certificates. To learn more, CLICK HERE |
