Little Simple Things was the title of my first solo exhibition in 2009 at Golestan Gallery in Tehran. In that body of work, I created angels who came to Earth carrying qualities meant for people, courage, love, intimacy, thankfulness and arrived to experience what it means to be human. That idea continues to live in my practice today. I chose the name Little Simple Things because I believe art is reviving, and that the smallest, simplest moments, slowing down, noticing, making with our hands—reconnect us to ourselves and to one another. Art is a language of connection, and through it I hope to bring people together, offering creative experiences that help process emotions, cultivate awareness, and create inner space for clarity and new possibilities.

UPCOMING WORKSHOPS
Adult Workshops
Abstract Nature
A creative class where students explore nature through abstract shapes, colors, and textures. We begin by observing our surroundings, framing interesting details, and sketching simple forms. Then we work with a limited color palette to build expressive, intuitive paintings. The focus is on mood, movement, and personal interpretation rather than realism.

Kids Workshops
Architecture inside out
In this two‐day hands‐on workshop, kids explore the fundamentals of architecture by creating a space‐based project from the inside out. Through guided activities, they work with wood, cardboard, fabric, glue, and paint to build a three‐dimensional model that expresses how people move, live, and imagine space.
Kids learn to think like young designers as they experiment with structure, texture, color, and form. By the end of the workshop, each participant completes a unique architectural model that reflects their personal vision while building confidence in creative problem‐solving and spatial awareness.
Adult Workshops

Learn how to paint a variety of skin tones as you explore the basics of color theory, linear perspective, compositional structure, figure/ground relationships, and visual perception. You’ll also learn to use watercolor and gouache techniques such as wash, wet into wet, and dry brush. No experience is necessary.
