    Shirin joon..... I love your paintings because they are expressive. They breath life and color and order, all the things I love. To have a painting by you is a dream, but just like dreams, I am happy to just close my eyes and imagine myself sitting in my reading room, full of books, the window open, the sun streaming in, and your paintings on the walls radiating joy!

    If this were to arrive at my doorstep I would welcome it with loving arms. It would embrace my day in moments of quiet solitude. And since it is already a day of great emotion with the passing of Mrs Violette Nakhjavani it would also be a reminder of her strength & frangrance. All the best to you dear.

    Never has any artist's work so consistently made me happy. With simplicity, elegance and pure joy in every detail Shirin Saba's work brings forth memories of childhood happiness in a style that seems to touch the most ancient and timeless traditions of visual art. In her works one can see that rare and precious example of a unique and original style born of true discipline. Every piece is a treasure. The two paintings that we own are amongst our most prized possessions and have enhanced all the varied spaces that we have called home. This is visual art in its highest form.
