Dutch and French artists tried to incorporated horses in their paintings over the last centuries but not a single one has created such creative and complex abstract compositions with a lively and exciting line work and no one has used such glowing colours in variegated synchronisations like Mashkoor in Pakistan. The majestic animal bears immense fascination for Mashkoor. Horses serve both as a subject and symbol in his paintings. He portrays horses as a symbol of beauty, power and speed. He maximises the impact of his strong drawing skills to establish details in small and large canvases alike. Mashkoor uses the language of colours, which contains a degree of independence from visual references in the real world i-e, Horse s and Women.
