Title not Known (Al-Jader 1)
The scene depicted by Al Jadar captures the pastoral aesthetic of an Iraqi Village. The painterly approach Al Jadar uses in forming the silhouettes of the landscape creates a sense of movement to an otherwise static scene of architectural elements.…
Title not Known (al-Jadir 2)
Al-Jadar paints an image of the tranquility and rest that takes place at the end of a days work. The livestock is tethered to a post, the sky is darkening while shifting its hues from brilliant turquoise blue to dusky purples punctuated with silver…
Title not known (al-Jader 3)
Another painting from the Iraqi Village series by Al-Jadar, Iraqi Village 3 captures the iconography of the small Iraqi town. The simple and beautiful geometrically based architecture, the palm trees, and market stalls. The villagers are shown…
Title not known (al-Jader 4)
In Iraqi Village 4, Al-Jadar relies on a much tighter composition than others in the series. The bulk of the paintings scene takes place in the foreground, focusing on the bare skeletal silhouettes of the trees, the cube like shapes of the houses,…
Title not known (al-Jader 5)
"River Scene 2" differs from the previous in the series as it has a great deal more movement and action in the composition and subject matter of the painting. The long, sweeping brush strokes mimic the motion of the waves in the river. The warm, rich…

Title not known (al-Jader 7)
Where as the previous work "Women in the Village Souq" shows the daily tasks of the females in the village, "River Scene 1" illustrates the tasks that the men of the village undertake daily. The scene depicts the readying of the vessels to go out…
Title not known (al-Jader 8)
In this oil on canvas, Khalid Al-Jader illustrates a scene of life within the borders of a small bucolic Iraqi hamlet. The thick impasto and broad brushstroke that Al-Jadar employs creates a strong sense of texture and three dimensionality to the…
Title not known (al-Jader 9)
Another image from the Village series, "Iraq Village 6" shows the viewer a tighter vantage point onto the world of village life in Iraq. The composition of the piece is pyramidal, meaning that it is wider at the bottom and seemingly comes to a point…
Title not known (al-Jader 10)
"Iraq Village 5" is quite similar to others in the Village series. The depiction of architecture and persons in the painting is consistent with the other works of this subject matter executed by Al-Jadar. The colors are striking with the poignant…
