Cyrus Afsary
Cyrus Afsary was born and raised in the Middle
East, and began his art instruction when he
enrolled in an art conservatory at the age of
15. He studied art in college, where he
received classical instruction and painted
primarily in oils. Afsary was also earning money
with his paintings, having begun to sell portrait
commissions while still in his teens. Afsary had to
pursue an art career after moving to the US in
his early thirties.
Although his specialty is portraits, Afsary's
subjects have varied from landscapes to still
lifes. He enjoys working in oil, and sometimes
also works with watercolors and pastels. Afsary
relies on his strong technical skills when
identifying and placing the colors and values
in each piece, but he adds something more
tangible with each brush stroke. His work
began to be noticed in the early 1980's, when
his incredible style attracted the attention of
Western art aficinados. Afsary's paintings have
won many awards, including the first Robert
Lougheed Memorial at the 1988 National
Academy of Western Art Exhibition.
