Ibrahim Timary’s artistic journey began at the age of six, when he was drawn more to the quiet focus of painting than to childhood play. A self-taught artist influenced by his father’s own creative passion, he crafts works that echo the memories and emotions of his early years. His paintings are distinguished by vivid, radiant colours that celebrate the Kurdish cultural love for lively, vibrant shades—all pursued alongside his full-time job.
