Elmad Al Taay Art for Sale and Sold Prices

b. 1973 -

The artist behind this has a very unusual, even dramatic story to tell. Emad Al Taay was born in Baghdad, Iraq in 1973. He first started painting when he was a child. Emad took his inspiration from his uncle who was an excellent artist, despite never enjoying an art education. His uncle painted the walls and ceilings at home, using everything as his canvas.

Art and painting always fascinated Emad Al Taay and was determined to become his lasting passion. In 1996 he graduated from Baghdad University with a Bachelor degree of Fine Arts. He then worked as a teacher at the Baghdad Institute of Art and started also his own studio. Emad was awarded several first prizes in drawing and painting competitions in these years. His works were displayed in numerous exhibitions
