September 25, 2005, Beverly Hills, CA — Metin Bereketli, Hollywood’s charitable international artist renown for his DIVERSITY-series of striking compositions and one-of-a-kind “Healing Art” therapeutic art program, has won the hearts of art lovers at the 4th Annual San Gennaro Italian-American festival held in Los Angeles.

Metin especially made the waves ROME, one of the many original compositions in his Cities series of unique paintings celebrating the top cities of the world.

************** Who is Hollywood’s Healing Painter Metin Bereketli?

Born on the shores of the blue Mediterranean, Metin’s first memories in life have been the bright sun-lit colors and shimmering forms of open water. So it’s not a surprise that America’s foremost diversity artist has chosen another great city by the sea, the mighty Los Angeles, as his home port.

Raised in a caring middle-class household of civil servants, Metin’s artistic urges first manifested themselves in the form of a love of the movies, on the one hand, and a relentless wanderlust that propelled him to travel far and wide as a young man.

Following the early years he has spent in the Middle East and Europe, Metin migrated to the United States in the mid-80’s to search for his destiny in the Promised Land. After working in the film studios of North Carolina and Texas, Metin settled permanently in Los Angeles to launch his new career as a painter of relentless hope and
irrepressible joy.

Starting off from the naïve painting tradition and then blending it with his own layers of "empowering diversity," Metin has quickly emerged as one of the up-and-coming artists of note. He has successfully developed a distinguished visual style appealing to a diverse demographics of art connoisseurs.

True to his understanding that “we get only what we give in life,” Metin has also launched a "Healing Art" platform through which he introduced thousands of children with serious ailments to the miracle of art therapy. Today he attends many such workshops across America carrying the torch of hope to those who need it most.

Metin’s high-traffic web site www.hollywoodpainter.com is a testimony to the prodigious energies that animate Metin’s work from inside out. Please check it out today and hear the Mediterranean roar into the Pacific with joy.

To promote healing through giving, Metin has generously supported many charities with his art. To see a partial list of Metin’s generosity please visit http://www.metinbereketli.com/pages/charity.html
