Akhtar’s paintings vividly portray California’s iconic natural
beauty, inviting viewers to contemplate the unique intersection
of climate and geography that defines our region, with rich
textures, color, and depth. This collection embodies the
lightness and movement of the landscape, with soft, merging
elements that define California’s unique charm. “Golden Reverie”

In her commitment to ecological stewardship, Akhtar uses
non-toxic pigments and sustainable materials in her artistic
practice, emphasizing her dedication to preserving the
environment that inspires her creations. “Having left Pakistan
twenty years ago, I often yearn for the familiarity of my
homeland. Yet, over time, I have discovered a deep appreciation
for the nature and tranquility that transcends borders. Through
my art, I strive to capture these vibrant landscapes and the
peace they provide, inviting others to join me in exploring the
colors of nature and finding serenity within these landscapes,”
said Akhtar.
