My first steps with Arabic Calligraphy


Salam All,
Here are two paintings that I finished recently, An Nour ( the Light) and Ar Rahman ( the Merciful). They are part of a series on surahs on the Holy Quran, and I hope to make some more soon Insha Allah! They are my first oil paintings after a long long
 break, and I really enjoyed working on them. It is also the first time I use Arabic Calligraphy, and i hope to get better in the future. I'm actually desperately looking for a calligraphy teacher in London at the moment, if anyone can help please drop me a line!
