Architecture & pattern in teal, gold & texture

A golden domed mosque glowing out of layered texture, its dome and minarets picked out in gold against deep, weathered tones.

The Taj Mahal reflected in still water beneath a blazing sky: Mughal architecture at its most poetic.

A golden Persian palace of domes and minarets rising from soft washes of gold and grey.

An abstract interpretation of the Ka'bah: layered textures and bold contrasts, made to capture the peace, reverence and connection it holds for so many.

A pair of gilded doors worked in raised gold, their panels framed by bands of calligraphy and ornament, built up in layers until the surface catches the light like metal.

A carved stone Ottoman window, its arch and ornament built up in relief so the surface feels like weathered stone.

A black studded door with gold ornament and a lion-head knocker, rich with history.

A teal mihrab inside a border of red and white tiles, with layered geometric pattern in the arch.

A teal mihrab framed by bands of gold Arabic calligraphy, its arch filled with gilded geometric pattern.

A Moroccan keyhole-arch niche holding shelves of old books, set into cracked, gold-ochre plaster built up in heavy texture.

A mosque façade in green and gold: a great arched doorway, rows of arches and a dome alive with pattern.

A pale, Taj-like mosque in cream, green and gold, its domes, arches and minarets traced in fine gilded pattern, presented framed.

Inspired by the vibrant glass and glowing tones of Moroccan lanterns, with deep blues against bright colour.

This painting was inspired by the beauty of these timeless colours and the way they complement one another with such warmth and sophistication. I wanted to create a piece that felt calm, refined and inviting, with a collection of vases that celebrates simplicity through texture, light and delicate detail.

Every brushstroke was a reminder that beauty is often found in the simplest of things, and I hope this piece brings a sense of warmth and tranquillity wherever it finds a home.

A weathered vessel in rust, umber and gold, its heavily textured surface set with a patterned diamond panel in red, teal and cream, against a soft grey ground.
