Javid Tabatabaie Demonstration

“For me, watercolour embodies freedom and fluidity. With over 20 years of experience, I’m motivated by the way water and pigment create a delicate balance between control and spontaneity. Every brushstroke is a unique interaction between intention and accident, and sharing this approach through global workshops has inspired others to embrace watercolour’s lively unpredictability.
My paintings capture moments that feel both fleeting and timeless, inviting viewers into a world of fluidity and motion.
I’m Persian but I moved to Canada about 5 years ago.”

Javid makes his IWM debut at IWM2026

He will give a live demo on 17th May
