It Is In The Eyes,

as these stunning paintings show,


 Maldha Mohamed, is an artist who lives in The Maldives, has a moving portfolio of ethereal human subjects, these are from her Instagram feed,

 and I just can not get over how lifelike they are,

 Maldha Mohamed is a self-taught artist from the archipelago of the Maldives islands, 

and has been dabbling in fine arts ever since the age of 3, but has been professionally pursuing a career in art since the age of 15. Now at the age of 21, Maldha's work has been featured at many notable exhibitions such as at Galerie Berlin Baku - Germany, as well as many solo exhibits - the most notable being her 2019 exhibit at Jen: Shangri-La hotel Maldives titled 'Hiyala - An insight into Maldivian Folklore'. She has also taken part in numerous group exhibits at venues such as multinational resorts, 

“It excites me to paint (the eyes), as I try to make them as raw as possible, to give them depth and life,” the artist says. Maldha uses a variety of brushstrokes and textures on the wooden panels, adding dimension to the small portraits, to see more of her outstanding work have a look here and click onto collections, what stunning work.
