About Me

I'm a Nightmare with a duo of nationalities that is a spicy yet rich combination of two opposite worlds of Mexico and Iran that has taught me a lot about compromise, respect, acceptance, and the profound elegance there is of mixed lifestyles. Influenced by a legion of passions, my art becomes the window to my soul speaking my visions embellished by my hands. Through many different mediums I express my art, and through each one my interests and influences reveal themselves to the enquiring eye. Everything from artists with vivid imaginations and messages to exotic cultures, music, movies and photographs telling the most beautiful stories will inspire my mind into a whirlwind of productivity. I love to defy soceity's standard definition of beauty. This LAdy is AMAZING!! Check her art- Colette Calascione:
