Orca Spirit

Under a full moon, an orca leaps through icy waters beneath a sky of stars. Yet within its body lives another world - a jungle of trees and sunset light, a secret pond where life breathes and renews.

For the Haida and Tlingit peoples of the North Pacific, orcas are kin - intelligent, social, and deserving of the same respect we grant ourselves. 

This painting honours that vision: the ocean holding the forest, the whale carrying the world’s breath within. May we, too, learn to see the life of our planet as one shared body.

Inner Garden

A forest clearing becomes a mirror of the inner self. Through a quiet pavilion, a path unfolds - leading toward a garden prepared for an unseen guest. The air carries a hush of expectancy: cushions arranged, carpets laid, everything awaiting the presence of another.

Beneath a tree, a woman sits in stillness, part of the scene yet apart from it. She is both observer and inhabitant of her own inner world. Around her, nature becomes an extension of thought - each leaf a breath, each ray of light a gesture of welcome.

Inner Garden is not a private retreat but an open threshold. It invites the wanderer to enter, to rest, and to discover that the landscape of one soul can become the meeting place of many.

المحمية - Al-Mahmiya

Resting and giving shape to dreams.

Above a tranquil expanse of water, where clouds drift like unspoken thoughts, a golden frame floats - a threshold between the visible and the imagined. Within it, a woman reclines on a cushion, her body at rest, her mind adrift in creation.

المحمية - Al-Mahmiya, meaning The Protected, evokes the sacred space where dreams take form before entering the world. The figure hovers between sky and sea, both sheltered and radiant, embodying the quiet power of imagination as a source of renewal.

The painting is a meditation on stillness as strength, on the sanctuary that allows vision to grow. To dream, it suggests, is not to escape reality - but to give it shape.

باغ فین - Bagh-e Fin

Inspired by the historic garden of باغ فین - Bagh-e Fin in Kashan, one of Iran’s oldest and most enchanting gardens, this painting reimagines paradise as both design and discovery. Water channels trace perfect lines through the garden, reflecting the architecture of the Safavid era - symmetry born of devotion.

Yet through these lines, life overflows. Blossoms breach their borders, vines reach across marble edges and the order of geometry gives way to the freedom of growth. In a quiet corner of the garden, a carpet is spread out, adorned with wondrous fruits and small delights, inviting the viewer to linger.

Bagh-e Fin celebrates the balance between human intention and nature’s wild persistence. It is a garden to be wandered, not possessed - a living map of beauty that renews itself with every gaze.
