I'm just flabbergasted. I don't even have the words. He was the greatest! A very passionate man. His work is perfection. Tell me about his personality. His portrait looks very deep and intense but I think that's because of all the artistic talent and passion in him and that shows. No wonder you're so proud of him. Who wouldn't be! I love art myself and I know great work when I see it. That takes a lot of hard work and concentration, I know. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your sharing these with us. I would love to see more so if you put some up please PM me and let me know.
Stunning. I'm not articulate on sculptures, but there is a robustness; grace; repose; intrigue; sometimes a play of the rawness of earth/ nature against the delicate texture of living things. You feel them. I'm fascinated by the person. Not clear what he was thinking, I don't know him. But for me it brings to mind the fragility of our living bodies that hold us within life with our thoughts, feelings, preferences, interactions as long as we live... but dust thou art and to dust thou shalt return. And it's a magnificent portrait of him. Appropriately sculptural.
I know … when it comes to sculptures, one needs to see them in three dimensions … Also Hamid would allow his audience to touch them too … Especially when kids wanted to touch the birds …
That’s my favorite too… that’s a self portrait…… he made it when he was looking for his true love and that’s why you can see the empty places in his arms…
Wow Soossie, the art is simply elegant, beautiful. I’m awed by artists that have his ability to take a feeling, emotion, and translate it into a physical manifestation. Truly a god given gift. And, you must’ve been a very handsome couple.
Hi my friend… thank you so much for understanding his art and the artist that he was ….. We both considered his art the core of our 14 years of marriage ….. and thank you for the kind compliment…

These are beautiful, Soossie. ♥️ His attention to his art, I can only hope, came in the way he loved you.... The way you speak of him, celebrate his life, only speaks he gave you the same gift in attention of his (he)art. That love never leaves you.
@Soossie I feel I am tortured as a result, but I won't change those parts, nor can I now, as the intimacy that asked nothing to impart, to give thank you, while so difficult, I'd never change inside myself. It may never bring you anything, but how you give your love to those who need is what gives my love meaning.
That’s a beautiful kind of love … I’m sorry that it still hurts you …

@Soossie I feel in a way I can never love someone again in real life now. I took a sabbatical of a kind to sort myself out, not saying I did well, but I know these teachings better than I ever could have before when I was angry ... and while I have a heart of compassion in love, can give to any open heart I feel, a part of me longs of solitude. It's sad, but I don't know how to keep that part from myself. You are a remarkable person in how you felt and give.
Art and creative ,so much dreamy sympathy expression there..loved the fifth/ sixth ones something I can put in my garden or beside my fountain. Glad you sharing it 💟.
beautiful work he did and he was a good looking man i can see the determination in his face, i truly loved all his work is there more you could show us?
Thank you … Of course … he worked every day and created many many beautiful pieces … I have the photos in my laptop which I rarely use …. here are photos of some bronzes that I have in my collection … the photos were taken for different purposes rather than the sculptures:
@Soossie @Soossie Was he a fan of Picasso,i like Picasso i find his work intriguing , but your husbands work is similar in some respect but you can tell the different creativity truth is I would love to have some of your husbands works instead of Picasso.
We lived together for 14 years … we still loved each other when we divorced and stayed best friends until his last day of life…. His death was a great loss to me…
Many said that he looked like young Tommy Lee Jones…
