My life-long love of making art led me initially to consider a career in architecture, but my love of mathematics led me to become a structural engineer. At a time before computer assisted drawing (CAD), both disciplines required a huge amount of freehand and mechanical drawing.
After a quarter of a century of great fun as a structural engineer, I decided to pursue painting full time.
(I also list in this blog published books of translations of modern Urdu poetry.)
