Time to go to Karachi. I spent the morning packing and prepping to go to Karachi. My friend Najib sahib had a gallery opening as well. I would either take the bus or ride down with Najib sahib if he had space in his car. He pulled up after his class and invited me to join him, which really made things easier and more comfortable and fun for me.It had been a long time since I had sat in an air conditioned car, and the luxury was much appreciated. We picked up another artist friend from CEAD and head out no the road. We grabbed some food along the way, enjoyed some beautiful landscapes, then visited another artist in Karachi, before going to the show at the Canvas gallery in Clifton.
My friends Haider Ali and the Phool Patti team joined us there too and it was great to see them. The show was a lot of fun, featuring four artists. Najib sahib is a fantastic artist and it was great to see his work in a show, though he has so much more beautiful art hidden away in his home. I hope to see more of it in gallery shows soon!Afterwards, I head out with Haider Ali sahib, just like back in February. He was teaching a 2 week long workshop at the Indus Valley School of Art and Design. We went back to his home, enjoyed some food and catching up. It was great to see his family again too.
