David Ashouri was born and raised in Iran before moving to Israel with his family when he was 12 years old. At the tender age of 9, David knew he loved art and would somehow find a way to share this passion with others, but he initially went into the family business running a plastic manufacturing company. By the time he turned 18, he was doing well in financially after investing in technology that revolutionized his family's manufacturing company. This allowed David to move to New York in 1979 after the Revolution.

David is now focused on his lifelong passion of creating impressive pieces for those who appreciate art and love to express themselves authentically.
