Sometimes the good Lord goes out on a binge and grants everything to some of his favorite ladies -- the looks, the heart and the talent!

Metin in front of his DIVERSITY 6 painting with two such blessed souls -- Negrita Jayde (L) (wife of Gregory Hines) and her art-lover friend.

Metin in front of DIVERSITY 6 with (Left to Right) the young and fast upcoming talent Zach Hines (son of late dancer, actor, writer and genius Gregory Hines), lovely Negrita Jayde (wife of G. Hines and Zach's mother) and fantastic Chris Schauble ( Master of Ceremonies, News Anchor KNBC-TV 4 ). A power group in top form!

Metin with a close friend Sally Kirkland, the famous Hollywood actress who played in over 100 movies, and directed many of her own,

Kirkland, a very spiritual person who never lost sight of the true things that really matter in life, is the goddaughter of another Hollywood legend, Shelly Winters.

Metin is an artist who believes 100% in the importance of education for the future of America.

When Multicultural Motion Picture Association (MMPA) has asked him to help with its scholarship drive for the fourth year in a row, Metin did not hesitate and agreed to the exclusive solo exhibit of his empowering DIVERSITY 6 painting just for this auspicious event.
