Profile

Engineer’s precision,
artist’s eye.

I work professionally across design, digital art, mixed media, colored pencil, chiaroscuro and acrylic, moving between hand-rendered realism and digital collage in the same body of work.

My academic background in textile engineering shapes how I build a piece: structured, deliberate and technically exacting, in service of something felt rather than just seen.

My work has been exhibited and sold at World Art Dubai, the Muscat Art Exhibition and group shows across Iran, and is registered in Selected Works of Iranian Contemporary Visual Artists 2024. Alongside my own practice I teach painting to students of all ages in both Iran and Canada, and have delivered more than twenty commissioned projects for private clients.
