AZIZ AMOURA (JORDAN ARTIST SERIES)


Aziz Amoura is an important player in the Jordanian art scene. He is well known here for his work doing portraits, but has also done some other really amazing work over his 35 year career, like the two pieces shown above. Amoura stopped painting several years ago and now teaches art at Yarmouk University. I can't vouch for whether he is a decent guy or not because he has blown off our appointment to have coffee. I'm leaning towards no.
