"This is a wonderful time for everyone to drop by my studio to see the artwork up close and personal," Hooshang said. "Plus, it will give all the tour participants and the artists a chance to interact with each other."

In addition to original abstracts, Hooshang offers several other genres, including limited-edition prints, florals, figuratives, running horses, landscapes and still lifes.
