Summary
As an accomplished freelance artist with a strong foundation in graphic design and illustration, I have had the privilege of showcasing my artwork in solo and group exhibitions across multiple countries, including Iran, Canada, the United States of America, Switzerland, and Turkey. With a bachelor's degree in graphic design and a master's degree in illustration, I have dedicated over 20 years to refining my skills in the visual arts. Through my diverse portfolio, I strive to push the boundaries of creativity and explore new techniques that captivate and inspire audiences. My passion for art extends beyond creating; I also enjoy sharing my knowledge through workshops, where I impart my expertise in illustration and sculpture to eager participants.
