The Essence Painting

My name is Sheida Kamyabfar, and I am a 67-year-old female artist originally from Iran. Nine months ago, I embarked on a new chapter of my life by migrating to Austria. My journey into the world of art has been both profound and transformative, shaped by a diverse and rich background. From the age of 32, I have been deeply immersed in the study of psychology, philosophy, and Eastern religions. These disciplines have profoundly influenced my perspective and approach to art. At the age of 52, I pursued a college course for two years, which ignited my passion for painting. This newfound passion led me to attend a painting school for five years, followed by private classes to further hone my skills. For the past several years, painting has been my primary focus and creative outlet. I have dedicated most of my time to developing my artistic abilities, and now feel confident in my capacity to create a collection worthy of exhibition.
