Maqsad

Acrylic, texture Paste and Charcoal on Canvas

7" x 9"

Original Painting by Ayeesha Khanna

Stretched canvas, with External Frame

"Maqsad" is a depiction of a mountain peak rising with assertive, bold strokes - a tactile representation of ambition in its most tangible form. Every textured ridge and furrow embodies the arduous journey towards lofty goals. The summit, painted with thick, sculptural layers of white and grey, symbolizes the pinnacle of achievement, a place where few dare to tread, reflecting the isolating nature of high aspirations. The sky, a sweep of serene blue, hints at the clarity and peace found at the heights of success, yet the heavy impasto suggests a tempestuous process, a metaphor for the tumultuous path of perseverance against life's relentless challenges

"Maqsad" has a soothing white and grey against a pop of blue to complement any wall colour or interior decor you may consider. I aim to paint pieces that are timeless and can stand out solo or contribute to a collection. This is a perfect example of that.
