I work with various mediums such as oil, acrylics, and ink. I believe that limiting myself to a single medium would restrict my artistic process. Each idea I have manifests in its own unique style.
To start my paintings, I begin with loose and quick staining on a white canvas. I then add layers of drawings and paint with a variety of colors. The process involves a bustle of brush-strokes and the blending of stains and lines.
I use drawing lines with expressive and exaggerated colors to create precise geometric visualizations, which relate to my field of study, Industrial Design.
During my preschool days, my favorite activity was drawing and painting. Even as I grew older, my passion for art only grew stronger. Eventually, I decided to go to college to study art and it was there that I realized I wanted to pursue a career in this field. After several years of painting in various styles, I began training with two renowned artists to further my knowledge in abstract impressionist paintings. I have been painting for most of my life, and my works are currently held in private collections across Canada, the United States, Europe, and Iran.

There are two tendencies in my mind when I paint, which are in constant struggle. One is my desire to create abstract paintings - a combination of sensory, free, and quick brush marks with active and careless movements. The other tendency is to portray the inner states of the human mind and the visual reflection on their body forms. Currently, my routine is a mixture of these two tendencies in the overall form of figurative painting. However, my special attention is focused on the complicated, gorgeous, and sometimes unknown phenomenon called "woman".
With utmost sympathy and respect for humans today, my desire is for my artwork to inspire the audience to sense the complicated state of love and spirituality in our programmed and artificial lives.
