Art is the Only Hope!
If anything can save human from his self inflected damage, it would be Art.
With a brush in my hand, I was born on January 7, 1949, in the wondrous city of Abadan, Iran, on the beautiful Arvand river; and because of that, my only passion and interest in life is: Art & art & art!
