His paintings had appeared in a group exhibition as early as 1965, and have since appeared regularly in various exhibitions during the last twenty years both at home and in foreign countries.

Farooqi reflects the light of inner self (inspired by maulana rumi) on canvas in colorful impressive ways with his dancing brush. Shafiq Farooqi paintings are based on an enlightened inner being and not intellectual wisdom; they center on revelation, not logic. Changing tones and a variety of colors show his command over their use in creating various feelings and sensations. Clifton Art Gallery is proud to be associated with Shafiq Farooqi.
