Born in Shirae,
Iran in 1970, Helen Zarin can remember beginning to
paint at the early age of five. Showing talent, her
influential family encouraged her to invest in her
artistic endeavors.
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.
