Nagib Karsan
Born in Tanzania in 1955- Nagib spent his childhood years in Africa and boarding school in the UK.
Enjoying art from an early age he undertook a six-month course in Kenya before embarking on a varied career in business.
The the late 1990’s he found time to rediscover his interest in art and explored a wide variety of mixed media and techniques.
He found inspiration in the work of Frank Webb- in the style of design impressionism- mostly in watercolour.
He is now painting regularly and uses an unusual technique by first applying a collage of printed cut paper to the image surface before and during the application of the paint. This creates a most unusual and unique finish that is so much a part of his trademark.
He is a member of several art societies and his work can be found in various galleries and collection throughout the UK.
