Welcome!
On this website you can see semi-abstract paintings in oil made
over the last five years. My paintings are about history in the
widest sense . Some are drawn from personal and family history,
but I also research artefacts and graphics from all over the world
as inspiration for pieces which reflect a broad range of cultures.

The
spirals of medieval Spanish ironwork, the mandalas of the east,
the ideas of the mystical Kabbalists, and the Goddesses of Old
Europe have all floated into my work - I am particularly interested
in Goddess culture, which has paid tribute throughout history
to all women. The logo which appears on the index page and the
icons, says "poll", my name in the Farsi language. It
means "bridge" and I have taken it as my signature to
reflect the idea of bridging centuries and cultures, using colour,
tone and texture to evoke distance in time as well as space.
