Mostafa Shafaeitilaki

• I am MOSTAFA SHAFAEI. I was born in sari, a small city in northen part of IRAN.

I have always been interested in painting since my childhood. So when i was student, I took part in several Art competitions during my academic life and most of the time ، i won the prise. Due to those several achievements, i was motivated to try my hardest and boost my ability in painting.

Unfortunately, due to financial problem and university expenses, i was not able to study Art at the university. However, it din't cause me to stop painting. So i kept painting as my main interest that it has always left a deep impression on my mind and spirit.

My passion for painting has lead me (without attending any painting courses) to continue this field of Art. In addition, I have been teaching painting for almost 10 years in my city.

I hope that i could make a small contribution to the development of Art in the world.
