RASSOULI is known in the art
community as an
artist who reflects mysticism and near-eastern spirituality
in his paintings and murals through the use of European painting
technology. What appears on canvas is a timeless perspective that
illuminates the divine creative light through the form of feminine
power and beauty.
Known as an artist, a visionary,
a speaker, and as a gifted teacher and guide in raising consciousness
and developing creativity, Rassouli has created a worldwide following
with his unique style and philosophy. What makes his art so unique is
the way he translates spiritual experience from his subconscious onto
canvas through meditation at sunrise. His vibrant hues, and
joyful color blends coupled with swirling circular brushwork create a
unique style of painting that he calls Fusionart, a style that Rassouli
has created and registered and is presently teaching to many artists
globally.
Born in Isfahan, Rassouli was
recognized as the Best Student Artist in Iran when he was fifteen and
was awarded a government grant to study painting in Europe. He
migrated to the United States in 1963, where he studied painting and
architecture at the University of New Mexico, and was honored with the
Leadership Award from the
Institute of International Education.
A conceptual vision of expanding
light combined with his own creative visualization of feminine beauty
has evolved in Rassouli since early childhood, and is expressed in his
inspirational paintings, reliefs, book illuminations and murals. He was
raised in a home
decorated with murals and intricate floral designs. Inspired and
encouraged by his Sufi mystic uncle, Rassouli developed an early
appreciation for painting and poetry, and he spent endless hours taking
lessons from
classical and impressionist artists and studying mysticism. He
discovered
new ways to transform his subconscious images into forms that he could
express and share.
