Art is like music, which receives appreciation only if it is based on the melody of creativity and hard work. And sticking to this melody becomes very crucial if the art is different and unique. Using almost 1,00,000 nails to create something as delicate and soft as human expression in the nail art is not an easy task but for the Indian artist Wajid Khan it’s not only easy but he masters the art to the par of excellence. Wajid Khan started with his first portrait of Mahatma Gandhi in the year 2005 and completed it in three years; and thereafter there was no looking back, he consistently perfected his nail art and continuously created dynamic interpretations of his subject and with each nail art, he kept pushing his limits to create magic with hammered nails. The art he creates with odd dark nails on white acrylic sheet is no less than a magic as each nail is hammered on the sheet one by one to give that impressive and contrasting effect. By placing nails at various heights and distances, the golden book record holder succeeds in creating distinct tones and can easily manipulate the intensity of the contours. Strange but true that all his artwork focuses on representation of human, which is something curvy in structure and shape and difficult to be formed with rigid nails. However, for Indian artist Wajid Art doing things differently is the motive of life. Otherwise, who can think of using something as ordinary as nails to create such magnificent Nail Art masterpieces, which transcend the regular paintings and portraits. These handmade nail portraits stands apart because of not only creativity but also for its quality of nails which are coated to give that sheen and resist rust and acrylic sheet which does not bend and is water resistant at the same time. Thus, making the portrait durable enough to last for generation after generation. What set the Indian Artist Wajid Khan work apart from other are his creativity, lateral thinking and aspiration to personify nails into the portraits of known and legendary faces who have achieved great height because of their hardwork that is a common base for his nail art too. He has successfully made portraits of Mother Teresa, Dhiru Bhai Ambani, Mecca and many more. His incredible hammered work has received critical appreciation worldwide. The Indian artist has something royal and impactful in store for the Wajid Art lovers as he says, “Working on a new concept is always difficult but difficulty thrills me and motivates me to bring out the best in me”.
