Allison - Revised by Handi.

Voila Madame!
"Allison" in Thuluth Script.

BTW... the Rooster joke is one I'll be telling the whole week!

Many thanks to Handi for revising the initial pattern, and producing a most elegant result.

Handi's Going East

Hi Handi,
I thought you might like having your name written in Arabic Calligraphy.
First is Handi in Thuluth script
Second is a repetition of it in Nastaliq script at every fifth of a circle (that' every 72°).










You should notice that I have modified the "Ha" letter (equiv. to "H") to make the pattern fully scrollable.
That's all buddy, be well.
One fEZ.

Allahou Akbar

Material : Plywood .
Script type : Thuluth.
Scrolling time : 1 h.

"Allahou Akbar", means God (Allah) is Greater.
Note that many translations use "Greatest" instead...
"Akbar" means greater.
I like the usage of the Comparative against the Superlative...
Thinking of anything you'd consider great?... Then God is Greater.
"Allahou Akbar" is first call to Prayer.

Maa Shaa' Allah!

On this project you can see a rather modern calligraphy of the arabic expression "Maa Shaa' Allah", which is used in the presence of Beauty and Goodness, literally meaning '(this is) What Allah has wished'.
It is exclusively used to express Joy or Satisfaction. So if you like this project you can say out loud "Maa Shaa' Allah!" just as you would say Fantastic! or Brilliant! (Any will do actually...).

The stone is of natural scuplture.
The wood is plywood + varnish.
The pattern was widely inspired by the brilliant work of Husamettin Yivlik founder of the Seljuk Workshops of Istanbul, Turkey : http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Veranda/7222/#top
