Raised in the capital city of Iran, the legendary artist Mitra Forouzan conveys her rich cultural background in each creation. Through her artwork, she explores the poetic nature of life and dreams, “bringing forth evocative themes and shadowy emotions in powerful, yet delicate imagery.” (Shulamit Nazarian) As an artist of extraordinary skill, Mitra´s profound understanding of technique and composition really delineate her expertise in the field.

After attending university in Iran, the young Mitra Forouzan studied architecture at the University of Southern California and fine arts at University of California, Irvine. She then continued her studies of the fine arts at Immaculate Heart College, where she graduated with honors. Shortly after completing her education, Mitra published her first illustrated book. And, thus, her life-long infatuation with art was born.

This infatuation has enabled her to create enough work to last a lifetime. Mitra Forouzan is what many call a true connoisseur. In addition to teaching art courses throughout the years, Mitra has spoken at various functions, providing viewers with a glimpse of her creative process. Countless shows and galleries have presented her work, each event increasing the public's demand for more.

Mitra is currently based in Los Angeles, California.

“[Mitra Forouzan] mesmerizes the viewer with her meticulous, detailed artwork, and takes us on dreamy ride where we can imagine the impossible. The amount of precision and time she has dedicated on each piece is equivalent to her love and passion for creativity and life.” —IranDokht
