Artist's Comments

My first calligraphy piece, i used wacom tablet Photoshop and Corel painter

It says SubhanAllah (Glory be to God) in the center
and the border says Khubsoorat (lovely or beautiful)

i've always been influenced by Arabic calligraphy as a graf artist and i figured id try it out in a more traditional way. Since i was a kid i have heard people say "SubhanAllah" i love the way it is used in common language among Muslims as an exclamation of the divine presence in all things of wonderment and beauty.

What would be visually striking is if you could get it to move. The center circle could spin around on it horizontal axis and the surrounding oval border words could spin one at a time, once, going around the center like a clock… with one revolution making the center circle spin once.

The military taught me that movement attracts the eye more then shape and color.

I could even image such a thing atop a minaret like a weather vane, but following a fixed pattern rather then changing with the wind. That would give it some added symbolism.
