Agrabah, New York

( contact me for orginal painting )
 
many of us are living in a fast paced modern world— all too familiar for someone who juggles between more than one culture, each one with its own valued virtues.
It’s a struggle.

as a Muslim-Libyan American i could say that it is a journey of acceptance and belonging, finding a balance between tolerance and values, patience and assertiveness. 

It’s a part of everyday.
This painting alludes to this struggle—this jihad that one may go through in life. 

Within this painting, little hints of failure, success and struggle, are scattered about with references to American pop culture.
