Waw


Waw  و




"Waw, an Arabic letter, is also used as conjunction 'and' in Arabic language. It is called the letter of love for it is the place of meeting between things; if it wasn't for Waw, things would not be able to come together. Hence, it is the letter of love in Islamic calligraphy." -Abdullah Khamis


This was a commissioned piece. I was really excited about it because I had just learnt about impasto and wanted to try it out. I'm happy with the result. As is the client. -SOLD
