Pastel and charcoal medium has always been my preferred technique as I believe it is a very convenient medium within the realistic school of art which I like very much. I do love the feeling of pastel material on my fingers and hands. Mixing and playing with the substance is essential in my opinion to stay close to my artwork until it is finished. Within the portraits of animals and humans, which characterize my thematic repertoire, I dedicate a lot of attention to details, from delicate lines on a face or hands to the spots of a tiger's fur, from mustaches and eyelashes to lips and hairpins. Similarly, a focus on the subject's eyes is, in my opinion, of the utmost importance to correctly see the soul of a living being. For this artwork I would like to mention the following details: -The painting is sold as original artwork as well as limited edition prints (10 prints only) -The prints are sold without frames but include a white border of 5 cm (2 inches) for mounting and framing. -The prints will include a certificate of guarantee of the type of paper used and the print quality. -The following fine art papers options are available: 1-Moab Entrada Rag, 100% Cotton Smooth Fine, , Matte, 290 gr: •Format: 70x56cm (28”x22”) = USD 150 •Format: 50x41cm (20”x16”) = USD 90 2-Moab Juniper Baryta Rag, 100% Cotton, Matte, 305 gr: •Format: 70x56cm (28”x22”) = USD 170 •Format: 50x41cm (20”x16”) = USD 110 3-Hahnemühle Cotton & Celulosa Textured, Matte, 210 gr: •Format: 70x56cm (28”x22”) = USD 160 •Format: 50x41cm (20”x16”) = USD 100 4-Hahnemühle German Etching, Alpha Celulosa, Matte, 310 gr: •Format: 70x56cm (28”x22”) = USD 220 •Format: 50x41cm (20”x16”) = USD 150 5-Hahnemühle Photo Rag Ultra Smooth, 100% Cotton, Matte, 305 gr: •Format: 70x56cm (28”x22”) = USD 250 •Format: 50x41cm (20”x16”) = USD 160 6-Hahnemühle Museum Etching, 100% Cotton, Matte, 350 gr: •Format: 70x56cm (28”x22”) = USD 270 •Format: 50x41cm (20”x16”) = USD 170

Colombia
I was born in Alexandria (Egypt) in 1963 and graduated from the faculty of Political and Economic Sciences of the University of Cairo in 1984. I entered the diplomatic service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs a year later and served in Egyptian Embassies in London, Santiago de Chile, Berlin, New Delhi, Montevideo and Bogotá. I currently work as the Ambassador of Egypt to Colombia. My first trials in the technique of pastel were realized in 1987 in London after attending a weekend workshop with the British artist Colin Bradley in Broadstairs, Kent. He inspired me to continue developing my artistic talents in this field. Later on I started to practice with acrylics although the major part of my artwork is still in pastel medium.
