<p>Here is AP22U5827</p>

<p>This guy loves numbers.</p>
<p>I mean take a look at the <strong>1130</strong> atop the canvas.</p>
<p>Then look at the <strong>1-13-7</strong> on the back panel of the main body.</p>
<p>What <em>is</em> that about ? </p>
<p>India flag on the mud flaps, and again we see the tri-colour theme on the back panel. Not to miss the O....K</p>
<p>No sign-off by the artist here.</p>
<p>Now, lets go to the main canvas :</p>
<p align=center><img style="WIDTH: 466px; HEIGHT: 330px" height=473 alt="" hspace=0 src="http://www.geocities.com/obscurum_per_obscurius/AP22U5827_ART.JPG" width=448 align=baseline border=0/></p>
<p>This is not a beach setting like so many others, but is a lake of sorts.</p>
<p>Not much detail in the boats, but he's freaked out on the trellis roof and staircase of the house.</p>
<p>Interesting effect with the trees behind the house, and check out the bold oil-on-canvas strokes used for the sky and the mountains.</p>
<p>What i couldnt figure out is the sawed-off tree stump bang in the centre of the foreground.</p>

<p>Lets start with AP12U2257</p>
<p>First of all, I'd be really grateful to anyone who can translate the Urdu text at the top of the canvas.</p>
<p>Now lets look at the painting :</p>
<p>1) Good detail in the border using silver coloured paint.</p>
<p>2) Also attention to detail in the reflection of the 2 boats in the water.</p>
<p>3) Interesting high-light of the palm trees on the right hand side ( RHS ), despite the already highlighted sky above the mountains, which lends the picture an eeire depth and relief between the trees and the sky.</p>
<p>( Note the stripes on the trunk of the tree, and the LHS versus the RHS of the trunk with its lighting effect. )</p>
<p>4) Note the artist's logo at the RHS below the canvas ( Habeeb Art, Moghalpura. But more about the artists later )</p>
<p>5) There is a smudged object, of what could have been a human figure in the LHS of the picture. But he changes his mind.....i wonder why.</p>
<p>6) Interestingly there is no sight of land in the foreground, just the backdrop of ( fiery red ! ) mountains.</p>
<p>7) Look at the funky mud flaps at the base of the auto, and the rear metal panel ( FOR HIRE OK ), which has horizontal stripes in colours akin to the Indian flag !</p>Photography2004-09-13T08:44:33ZbuzzliteyrIntroduction
