About Shams

+

Shamsuddin was born in 1986 in Mian Sahib, District Shikarpur, Sindh. He currently lives and works in Lahore. He received his BFA in Fine Arts, with a specialization in miniature painting, from the National College of Arts (NCA), Lahore. He graduated with honors in 2010. After completing his BFA, he began his studio practice. His early inspiration came from a teacher in Mian Sahib, who nurtured his passion for art. From a young age, he showed a strong interest and skill in drawing. Over time, he explored various mediums, and currently works primarily with gouache on wasli and Arches paper. In 2009, he was selected for an exchange program at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France. He has participated in numerous group exhibitions, and his work has been showcased both locally and internationally.
