His art is mainly watercolor painting. He was very nice and very enthusiastic to talk about way of painting ! His son was helping him, translating in English/ Uzbek and also learning how to paint, as well.
Our encounter was very pleasant and I ended up being lucky enough to acquire one of his piece of work ! I love my painting! :-)
Do visit that place and, if you meet Alisher and his family, enjoy his beautiful traditional watercolor art! :D
Халаты, костюмы, обувь, головные уборы - это не просто национальные штучки.
Автор собирает старинные ткани, которые годами лежали в сундуках и никогда не использовались.
Потом эти ткани соединяют в рисунок, комбинируют с вышивкой - и получается уникальный и ценный шедевр.
Обратите внимание на подкладку, это отсыл к японским кимоно - дарят носителю одежды особое настроение.
Не все смогут понять и разобраться самостоятельно. Поэтому спрашивайте и интересуйтесь.
Теперь есть 2 галереи «Счастливая птица». Первая - на месте караван сарай около регистана, вторая - в вечном городе (после ШОС), как заедете держитесь левее. Найдёте. Там чудесная терраса и новая атмосфера.
Highly recommend to visiting when you will be in Samarkand.
