During my career as an artist, I have met extraordinary men and women who have greatly contributed to the construction and development of my Art. Her Majesty Farah Pahlavi-Diba is one of the most important people and has supported me a lot. I have been and am still greatly inspired by the strong yet humble personality of the Iranian First Lady. Her love for Iran remains impressive.

I have also produced many portraits that she commissioned from me, with a certain pleasure.
