The exhibition, an open-for-all event was viewed by media, socialites and art aficionados who could be seen admiring the nature-inspired work on the opening day.
Speaking on the occasion Ashraf said, “I like to experiment with and explore watercolors. I feel its transparency and its layering helps me depict moods, feelings and my inner-self on paper. My paintings for this show are nature-derived and titled Nostalgia, Up there, Reminisces and Glee. These are all states of mind that everyone experiences and goes through some time or the other and which are being revealed in my body of work”.
