Art in any form whether it be dance, music or painting has always been my inspiration in life. In my work, I strive to reveal true beauty, the beauty which nature has intended us to see. I strive to represent the natural atmosphere of beauty in objects and places. I have also been inspired by the Persian art and fascinated by the shimmering gold and silver hues found in Persian miniatures as well as the luminous colors found in Persian tiles. In my work I like to create a mood to expresses personal feelings and romanticism.

I completed a three-year program in Contemporary Art at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in France. Having always admired realism and traditional painting and influenced by American Impressionism and the Boston School; I abandoned contemporary and modern art. So in 1989 I enrolled in the School of The Museum of Fine Arts for traditional studies with realist painter Joel Babb and then studied independently with Ed Stitt, a professional Boston artist and teacher.
