Featuring the Art and Calligraphy of Aziz Ahmed

A professional International Banker, Artist, Calligrapher, Poet, and a Scholar. Mr. Aziz U. Ahmed is a person with multi-talents. In spite of living in London since more than 40 years, he is still a staunch Hyderabadi. His Calligraphy skills are rare, and unique, probably one in several thousands. His Calligraphy talents are both in English as well as in Arabic, Persian, and in Urdu languages. Unique because English is written from Left to Right, while Arabic, Persian, and Urdu are written from Right to Left. To master in these two entirely different scripts is a work of Art.
