About the Item
This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online.
In “Lady in Red,” Shazia Imran conjures a stunning tableau of elegance and energy amidst a rain-kissed cityscape. Big Ben rises proudly in the distance, its golden face softened by a misty ambiance, while the foreground bursts with movement and depth. A striking figure in crimson—a recurring motif in Imran’s work—anchors the composition, her vibrancy cutting through the cool greys and muted tones of the rain-washed pavement. The artist’s play with light, seen in glistening reflections and warm glowing streetlights, creates a mesmerizing visual rhythm.
Imran uses loose, impressionistic brushstrokes to paint the bustling crowd, capturing the momentum of pedestrians navigating the rain-drenched streets. Each figure remains faceless, allowing the focus to rest on the lady in red, whose poise exudes a quiet confidence. The reflections beneath her feet mirror the vitality of the scene, while the red hue evokes passion and strength, standing in stark contrast to the somber mist.
This painting celebrates the quiet heroism of urban life—the resilience of individuals against the backdrop of weather and routine. Imran’s composition brims with grace, pulling viewers into a contemplative and uplifting moment. “Lady in Red” is an extraordinary work of art, poised to bring sophistication and warmth to any collection. Now available for acquisition at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea and online.
Artist bio:
With over 29 years of experience in the creative arts, Sydney-based artist and sculptor Shazia Imran is celebrated for her expressive mixed media pieces. Her distinctive work has earned her numerous accolades, including the prestigious Lorenzo il Magnifico Award at the Florence Biennale (2015), the Applied Arts Award at the London Biennale (2017), the Most Collectible Artist Award at the Shenzhen City Art Fair, First Prize at the 2018 Chianciano Biennale, and the 2nd Prize International Confederation of Art Critics Award at the 2019 London Biennale. Additionally, she has received multiple national awards in Australia.
Shazia’s art has been exhibited globally and features in public and private collections across Australia, the USA, the UK, Switzerland, Denmark, Italy, Canada, Dubai, Hong Kong, Macau, Thailand, China, Japan, and Singapore.
One of her career highlights includes a significant commission for VIP accommodations, The Mansion, at the MGM Hotel in Macau. Her works are also held in the collection of Rajamangala University, Thailand, and by His Highness Sheikh Juma Bin Ahmed Bin Juma Al Maktoum. Internationally, her work is sought after as an investment, particularly in Hong Kong and Singapore.
Shazia graduated with Distinction from the National College of Arts (NCA) Lahore in 1994 and later completed a Master of Design in Digital Media from the University of Western Sydney (UWS) in 2004. She has also undertaken additional courses at the National Art School (NAS) and UNSW in Sydney.
Her career spans diverse creative fields, including digital strategy development, website and intranet content management in the NSW Government sector, e-commerce marketing, advertising, and promotions in multinational agencies. Despite a successful corporate career, Shazia’s passion for art remained unwavering, leading her to pivot toward professional artistry after an invitation to the New York Art Expo in 2013. This pivotal moment launched a series of successful international shows.
Today, Shazia owns a studio and gallery in The Rocks, a historic precinct in Sydney near the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. She is the first female artist to establish a personal gallery in this iconic location, surrounded by acclaimed Australian artists.
Shazia’s work is inspired by her travels, where she explores the infinite expressiveness of her subjects through collage, acrylics, and mixed media. Her compositions integrate monograms and fine-printed paper from various cultural traditions, layered atop expressionist painting foundations. These vibrant, overlapping elements evoke dreamscapes, memories, and unity, meticulously crafted with textiles and collage. Her art resonates with themes of identity, urban landscapes, and cultural connection, offering a profound and multifaceted visual experience.

“Art and design is something I’m very passionate about. Use of colour, shape, texture and light defines my style in capturing the personality and emotions of the subject.
My inspiration and influence comes from everything I see, feel and experience around me. The delicately multilayered paintings I create, explore the connections between landscape, memory and the subconscious through texture and the interplay of light and dark, creating an atmosphere that opens itself up to multiple meanings.
My recent body of work is based on the mandala – representing the wholeness and unity of mankind. Representing the universe itself, the mandala is both microcosm and macrocosm and we all are part of it. No matter what region, race or religion we belong to, we are all same we are all humans.”- Shazia Imran

Autumn in Provence, Oil Painting
By Lisa Elley
Located in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
Inspired by the lush vineyards of France in the fall, artist Lisa Elley paints an impression of the scene. Light caresses the quaint village during the breathtaking summer. The vineyard flourishes in the foreground, creating a dramatic and colorful effect. She achieves a rich, buttery texture through thick impasto application.
About the Artist
Working almost exclusively with a palette knife, Lisa Elley maneuvers her artistic blade with an uncanny fluidity. Why paint only with the knife? She says, "when I paint with a brush, which I do occasionally, I tend to focus on the detail. With a palette knife I can't focus on the detail too much, so my paintings are looser, and more gestural, with bigger sweeps and strokes." This technique is called wet-on-wet. And it seems to be quite popular, as she has been bestowed the title "Knife Queen" by her facebook fans. Fun fact: Lisa's high school art teacher told her to study harder at math, as a career in art was "impossible."
