~SOFIAMETALQUEEN

Artist | Professional | Traditional Art
United States
I'm professional artist, fashion designer, model, programmer, sci-fi writer, philosopher, and owner of Ameynra company. Author of 5000+ artworks and fashion projects, two books, co-author of 6 several joint literary projects.

I live in West Hollywood, California. My customers, buyers, resellers live in 32 countries. They love my paintings & other artworks, and my Ameynra design lines from bellydance to hight fashion and from glam rock fashion to royal-styled accessories for ladies.

History of the dynasty began in 17th century. They owned steel-making factories & enjoyed making money by producing metal. That is a history, pride, but their past is the past, and I have my own way. As an artist, I started my creative way in 1982. Having received dozens grand prizes, being award-winning Lambada dancer, I started to created my fashion projects. A several events (1995-2000) have caused a huge brake in my creative work, but during that time my life turned into the world of heavy metal. I also studied in the University of Justice before my family decided to move to the U.S.

In 2001, an image of me as "Metal Queen" was invented by my beloved Tim, handsome U.S. veteran, American patriot before he left this beautiful worl 4ever. Then I started my patriotic art and collection of U.S. Flags. I worked as jewelry designer & designer for bellydance stars companies. In 2005 I created my own company Ameynra: high fashion & dance costumes for professionals, TV shows & carnivals. Metal is my life since my 18. I have a huge collection of metal music CDs, shirts, etc. I also do heavy metal art, fashion projects, I'm metal/gothic bellydancer and model.

There are three ways of doing things - the right way, the wrong way and the Sofia Metal Queen's way.

Metal for life !!!

Much love to all who love my art ! You are really nice people I've met in my life. Thank you !!!

Hi friends & visitors,

This short post is about one of my best metal-related artwork. Creation of this beadwork-embroidery took 3 weeks, lol !

Video: [link]

My fully beaded artwork, embroidery with swarovski crystals, glass beads, rhinestones, metal chains, beads, rhinestone lines, sequins. Blue beaded ornaments... imported fro the Middle East, ok, I use such to make a decorations for professional bellydance costumes priced $350 and up... You can see this artwork in albums on my official MySpace profile & facebook page. Metallica was my favorite band since 1986, when I 1st time heard their music, in age 5, ha ! Ha, I guess over 20 years of being a fan since childhood was a huge experiense for me ! Oh yeah, Metallica rocks, they're a great band, but now I love Black Metal much more than all other music styles. Dimmu Borgir took all my attention, they became my "metal magnetic dream" ;)

My parents liked Metallica very much, my father had probably world's largest Metallica collection. He wished to create Metallica Museum because he & they are same-aged men. Father gave me a part of his collection ;) But I need my way, my ideas. Main thing that Black Metal reminds me is: immortality. I adore Metallica. They will be my favorites 4ever ;)

XoXo,
Sofia Metal Queen.
