Artistic-born in 1972 in Tehran, Iran. Discovering art of painting from his depth of
unconscious and opportunity of being with masters of miniature painting and modern art drew a creative scenery of his future.
In 1984 from childhood toward adventurous youth, leaving Iran to France and landing in an incredible environment was an extraordinary Gate to his painting’s visions. Impressive modern art in France gave him a clear idea of continuing his way. Afterwards, due to some personal reasons he packed his fresh thoughts and ideas to settle in Germany. At age 15 it was a tough decision to manage life, planning for future and achieving goals but he continued the long path to prepare himself to accomplish the first and most influential vision in his life.
