Abstract Calligraphy by Ismail Gulgee

This original 18 x 24 inch oil on canvas by Old Master Ismail Gulgee, painted 1996, shows bold Arabic calligraphy. Thick impasto brush strokes form the word in green, ochre, gold and black.

Gulgee builds paint layer by layer. Letters twist and flow like fire. Colors glow on deep brown background. Texture is heavy – you can feel each stroke with your eyes.

This is Gulgee’s famous style. He turned Arabic words into modern abstract art. Strong, spiritual, and powerful at same time.

Painted 1996. Signed 1996 by Ismail Gulgee. One of Pakistan’s most famous modern art masters.

Bold Abstract Calligraphy

Gulgee paints Arabic letters with thick impasto oil. Green, ochre and gold strokes twist on brown ground. Letters look like movement and energy, not just words.

Impasto Texture Master

Paint is built thick on canvas. Light hits texture and makes painting alive. Gulgee was master of texture and bold color. This 1996 work shows his power with simple forms.
