Aayat Arts

I am Aayat, a self-taught painter working in acrylic and watercolor, drawn to the quiet moments most people walk past. My work moves across the natural world, still life studies of everyday objects, and abstract pieces built from a specific memory, loss, or hope, love and peace. Every painting starts with hours of just looking, at light, texture, or feeling, before a single brushstroke goes down, and can take anywhere from two weeks to several months in thin, patient layers. I am not trying to copy a photograph, I am trying to hold a moment long enough for someone else to feel it too. My work has been sold across North America and Europe, and I continue to paint from my studio, taking select commissions each year.
