Ehsan’s artistic gift was first recognized during childhood in Sweden. In 1996, he earned second place in the annual Persian Art Festival in Gutenberg, Sweden. So impressed with Ehsan’s talent, panel judge and artist, Hojat Kasrayan, provided artistic instruction for the following two years.

Ehsan’s cross-cultural journey brought him next to the United States where he currently lives. While attending high school in Southern California his young artistic talents would distinguish him; his paintings were requested for exhibition at the Laguna Art Museum.

Because spirituality and love are his priorities, Ehsan was continually at odds with the violence and destruction he saw in the world around him. To combat the escalating devastation, he found a solution by painting his visions that celebrated human diversity within a common format. He uniformly surrounded these visions in black frames, and later superimposed upon the whole ensemble the white dove of peace holding an olive branch. During this process Ehsan, discovered the solution he was looking for — the unification of all peoples in common good; only then can they be moved toward world peace. Ehsan had also found his trademark, Vision of Unity and Peace.

Now, Ehsan paints to advance charity, love and peace to a world in need. He will dedicate a portion of his profits to charities serving those in need. www.visionofunityandpeace.org
