About the Painting Style
Inspired by archetypes and myths, Babazadeh paints in a completely mental and imaginary space. Using nature’s elements, from plants & flowers and their growth in the lap of Mother Nature to goddesses in civilizations and myths, she has a special look at the woman in her paintings. Her thought, derived from knowledge, life experiences and human psyche, comes consciously in the form of a painting image and/or myth. Most of her artworks are made on the canvas using oil & color painting mediums, and especially warm colors. She is an expert designer who can work with other mediums as well. Not only did she study, recognize and use mythology and psychology in his works, but also is able to create unique world with its own inner feelings. In all the Babazadeh’s works, a visitor often immerse in the pleasure of confronting the fantastic mysterious world that challenges the human mind.
