Each card features original artwork by Rubina Kazi.
This new series features cards inspired by the Alhambra - Granada
The Alhambra was designed in the Thirteenth century to house the court of the Nasrid Kingdom, the only Muslim dynasty based in the Iberian Peninsula.
The Alhambra of Granada is the most dazzling palatine city I have seen, it incorporates a unique integration of architectonic spaces with decorative, artistic and ornamental elements.
The diverse spaces are complex with plain exteriors and intricately decorated interiors. Designs include coffered ceilings, tile-work, epigraphs and plasterwork that apply a very complex iconographic program to highlight the harmony of the surroundings.
This series is my humble effort at recreating a tiny version of this Masterpiece of Artistic perfection - The ALHAMBRA.
These cards are PERFECT to send to anyone, the receiver will cherish this unique work of art.
Each card includes a RUMI QUOTE to light up your day, the card is BLANK inside for your own personal greeting.

My art work is the definition of representational art because they can be read and have meaning, but the way they are painted, with letters in relief, highlighted and blended into a rich harmony of color make these pieces beautiful even to those who cannot read them.
It offers a deep meaning along with beauty. The geometric shapes and gorgeous natural backgrounds give satisfaction for the eye and aesthetic sense. The intricate designs create richness for any room. I try to bring a contemporary feel into the ancient art of calligraphy and extends my repertoire to painting abstracts that capture the flow of light and colors in unique ways.
