My name is Hamid Gholamipour.
I am an Iranian Canadian oil painter and animator currently living and working in Vancouver Canada.

I started drawing at a young age but I realize now that after spending three years of my young adult life as a political prisoner in Iran, I truly found a profound outlet through painting on canvas. Inspired by expressionism & fauvism I took painting courses at Kamal-ol-molk under Saeed Broman. Thereafter moving with my family to Canada in the summer of 1999, I recieved my 2D animation diploma at Capilano University in 2003. Since then I’ve been managing to keep the two art forms alive in my life.

For painting inquiries or commissions, feel free to send me an email.
