Irena Art Gallery

Wonderful teacher, great for all ages! I love how you can draw anything you want ,unlike other art classes, as the teacher will teach you the techniques and styles of art. It was a great experience!

His work is mesmerizing. His art touches your heart and soul. Since the early 20th century, no artist has had an honor of having their work permanently displayed in the halls of the Ontario Legislative Building in Queen’s Park, Toronto. In 2011, Alijanpour was commissioned to paint and to unveil a painting for this purpose. On May 28, 2011 the Speaker of the House of the Provincial Parliament unveiled Alijanpour’s painting to visitors and politicians. He announced it as the first Iranian-Canadian’s artwork, and the first after many decades, to be added to the permanent collection of the building. This painting is a portrayal of the new facade of the building which was also renovated in 2011 to celebrate its renewal as a symbol of the Ontario Provincial Government.

When I'm here my spirit is very high close to sky and makes me very happy.I am really glad that master Alijanpoor. and I thank him always because he brought me back in my sky.

BEST PLACE EVER

These classes are beyond description experience. It is beyond art but something emotional. I appreciate whatever feeling, artistic experience, and emotion is being exchanged here. Always appreciative and thankful to Master Alijanpour.

Waited for 2 hours to get my passport photo. They dont care about the customers.

He is one of the best person I have ever seen.

They start working around 11 am. They kept me waiting for an hour. Wouldnt recommend it.

Alijanpour is helping people find their talents in different styles of drawing and painting. He teaches me specific methods that help me reach my goals. He also gives me time to work on my own, which lets me leave class feeling like I've worked very hard. I've attached some examples of my work here.

This gallery contains some truly stunning work, and most importantly, Alijan Alijanpour himself. He's a bonafide living master, and I consider it an honor to travel from Washington DC to study Persian miniature painting with him. He is an excellent teacher and combines strong pedagogy with warmth, coaching, encouragement, humor and fun. The time flies and I'm often amazed at my own progress. I wholeheartedly recommend his gallery, artwork and classes.
