He mostly made landscapes using the wet-on-wet technique. He used watercolor cotton paper primarily. He also used rice paper, wallpaper, and experiments
with varied types of paper.
He started watercolor paintings as an art student until the end of his life. He used to paint with watercolor when he did not have a studio to work on his oil
paintings or when he was on the move or the road.
Sheybani believed that when facing a landscape, the artist should feel the surrounding nature. Then change it to his liking. That could mean moving hills,
waterfalls, or trees to reach the desired composition. For a watercolor painting, the artist needs, in addition to excellent technical skills, to have a sharp eye to
detect the constantly changing and fleeting face of the surrounding nature.
He always carried his bag of watercolor materials with him. Anywhere he will find inspiration to paint, in the middle of a busy city or on the top of the mountain
or the heart of the forest he will just sit and paint.
