Mohamed Nazeer bio

I was born and brought up in Sri Lanka, a place steeped in rich culture and natural beauty, I was drawn to visually appealing details from an early age. As I travelled and saw more, I began to explore art as a platform to experiment with colours and shapes. Whilst I have used pastels and oils to draw numerous portraits, landscapes and still life, acrylic abstracts is my signature style. My love for this style of painting grew from the freedom to use a broad spectrum of colours in order to capture the energy and form of the subjects that intrigued me.

I am a self taught artist and migrated to Australia since 1996. After retiring from my Engineering career in 2014 I have my own Picture framing business from home for the last 7 years.

I have exhibited my work at the Waverley Art Society and at Islamic Museum of Australia at Thornbury. “Kaleidoscope” was my solo exhibition in March 2018 at The Highway Gallery, Mount Waverley.
