I started drawing at a very early age. After attending school and college, I studied Fine Art at the University of the Punjab in the Fine Art Department, which broadened my horizon for my further development in this field. The well-known Pakistani artist and relative Abdul Rahman Chughtai's style of paintings and his beautiful colour combination also inspired me. I had the opportunity to show him my early work and consulted him with my rough sketches as well as with my finished paint
