Ali Baba's Book Series on: Artistic Flags - Book One: Africa. North America. South America

Ali Langroodi

Description

This book is about celebrating so many beautiful cultures, customs, languages, and landscapes. As if over the years, all nations have collectively decided to display their flags as a way to mark their victory. Thus flags have been symbolically used to announce the victory of coexistence over war and defeat of obstacles and hardships. This collection of flags confirms that all countries have been succeeding. In this book, I have simply been attempting to capture these amazing displays of honor and proud.

Since I started to paint as a hobby in my adulthood years I spontaneously gravitated toward drawing and painting flags. Very soon, travel became my second hobby. Each trip became a fun way to discover the unique cultural characteristic of each country. I do believe my many trips have made me to appreciate and respect humankind for being so different and unique despite sharing so many similarities.

This book provided an incredible opportunity for me to combine my passions for art and colors, flags, and so many beautiful customs and cultures all in one collection.

During preparation of this book I discovered so many new facts about so many beautiful countries. My hope is that reading this book becomes like a journey for you as well. I wish you a healthy discussion and exchange of ideas about what you find in this book.

Dedication
I would like to take this opportunity to recognize three women who shaped my life and made me the person who I became. I cannot find words to describe the kindness and patience of my dear mother, Maryam and my dear grandma (my dear nana) Rokeyah. They were the symbol of resilience and hard work and a great role model for me. I am determined to keep their names and memories alive.
 
The last but not the least is my dear Googoosh, the Persian diva. She sacrificed herself in so many ways for her country that make me to be indebted to her for ever. She faced the hardship of life with such an incredible bravery. She brought so much happiness and memorable moments to our lives and she continues to do so.
