Introducing International Artist Helen Zarin

Displays at Syd Entel Galleries

Helen Zarin was born in Shirae, Persia in 1970 where she can remember beginning to paint at the early age of five. Showing off her talent, her influential family encouraged her to invest in her artistic endeavors. Her work will be on display at Syd Entel Galleries on April 10, 2021-May 29, 2021.  The artist opening reception will be held on April 10 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

As a high school student, she studied with the well-known Persian artist and teacher, Saber. Later she enrolled in the Art and Culture Society, a national organization for gifted Persian Artists. As a student of Art and Culture, she refined her skills in the various mediums, especially pastels and oils. Helen was recognized by the Iranian Society and earned many national awards for her works. 

Conditions in her native country eventually compelled Helen to turn elsewhere for creative nourishment. “Hard work and talent are not enough for an artist to progress and blossom, creative freedom in the right atmosphere is essential,” she remarked. In the pursuit of these artistic prerequisites, she journeyed first to Europe where she displayed her works in Vienna before coming to the United States in 1993. She has continued her education first in New York and currently in Baltimore, Maryland where she resides. (Zarin Model by Helen Zarin)

Helen’s creative journey has progressed for over 30 years. Her body of work includes mixed media, oil, pastel, and collage. Her subject matter incredibly diverse includes figures, faces, landscapes and flowers. These impressionistic abstract creations show off her huge creative talent.
