As a self-taught artist from Iran, Farhad "Amir"
Nabipour began drawing and painting at an early age. Encouraged
by his family
to pursue
his talent,
he gained profession in drawing and oil painting.
In 1990, he left Iran to find freedom of expression
and began his professional career as an artist in New Zealand.
In 1995, by his long desire to see the United States,
he traveled to this country and began painting American landscapes.
As an international artist, he paints from the heart
to connect people with nature's beauty. His strongest paintings
are those
created from personal photographs of wild flower fields as well
as his surrealistic landscapes.
Amir cites Cezanne, Monet, and Van Gogh as most
influential. "They
have a unique style that brings the everyday life of people and
their surroundings to the viewer's eyes."
In 2000, he was commissioned by Trinity Gallery
in Atlanta, GA, to paint two American landscapes which are on display
in the largest
Hilton Hotel in the U.S. He has also been commissioned by families,
doctors and businesses.
 For the past 25 years, he has been working
on a collection of his personal experiences in life which he plans
to show in the near
future.
"If only we would take the time to look, we
would behold the peace, truth and love within each
and every one of us as well as amidst the nature that surrounds
us. Through my paintings, I want to invite others to see, enjoy
and embrace all the beauty that
I see".
His love for painting has made him a full-time artist. He also writes poetry,
creates graphic art, web design, photography and video production in his spare
time.
Amir is represented by these galleries: Twin House
Gallery; Atlanta, Gorgia, and Green Rabbit Gallery in Alpharetta.
Also, you can visit his showroom at Horizon Home (Design Center);
Atlanta.
