Siavash Mahvis - Brief Biography

SIAVASH MAHVIS

I am Siavash Mahvis, a painter born in Tehran, now living in Aalborg, Denmark. My preferred style is realistic and hyperrealistic painting. Figure drawing and live model drawing, along with painting and drawing from photos, are among my interests and skills.

Before settling in Denmark, I taught painting full-time in my own studio for many years. I have also participated in numerous exhibitions, both solo and in collaboration with my students.

I have always enjoyed and been fascinated by the contrast of light and darkness in nature. Whether I am painting from a photo or drawing from a live model, I aim to convey this visual delight in my work.

On this website, you will get to know my artworks, which are created in both quick sketch and long-duration painting styles.
