I was born in Tehran, Iran. I obtained an Arts Certificate at Graphics College and my Bachelor's Degree in Painting from Azad University. I then began my painting with an Expressionist style. After some time I ventured into a different style which was a combination of my knowledge of graphic design and painting. It’s a form of mixed-media where I combine an image and the painting process together. I have been able to expand my artwork to textiles, including home and office decor and high fabric clothing. I believe there is no smooth road toward success. But if you work hard, have a belief in yourself, consistency and most importantly a love what you are doing then success will come. I have a true passion for what I am doing.
