Salma Motakef
I was born in Shiraz, Iran. Painting was always part of me from childhood. I placed 72nd of 200,000 applicants for admission to The Tehran University of Art.
I moved to Toronto and continued painting and participating in public exhibitions and private shows, give art lessons, and exhibit and sell my paintings online.
I did receive my bachelor’s degree in English translation from the University of Shiraz and I also received a diploma as an Orthotics and Prosthetics technician from George Brown College.
In 2021 I completed an excellent art program enhancing my talent. I love painting pop art cause I believe it is the simple, daily objects in our life that make us happy.
