Nagib Karsan was born in Tanzania in 1955 and spent is childhood years in Africa and at boardding school in the UK. Enjoying art from an early age he undertook a six month course in Kenya before embarking on a varied career in business. In the late 1990's he found time to re-discover his interest in art and explored a wide variety of mixed media and techniques. He found inspiration in the work of Frank Webb, in the style of design impressionism, mostly in watercolour. He is now painting regularly and uses an unusal technique by first applying a collage of printed cut paper to the image surface before and during the application of the paint. This creates a most unusual finish that is so much a part of his trademark. He is a member of several art societies and his work can be found in various galleries and collections througout the UK. His amazing collage originals are now available on canvs and paper.
