Sima Amid Wewetzer Paintings in oil and Acrylic Sima Amid-Wewetzer originates from Tehran, Iran. After completing her studies @ the University Of Arts & Design in Iran in 1978 she moved to the United States. Sima completed her education @ Macomb University in Chicago, Illinois. Sima has traveled & lived @ many locations including, Tehran, New York, Miami, Los Angeles and Minnesota. This has given her a lot of experience from other works of art as well as environmental influences. Painting since the age of thirteen; Sima feels that her art allows her to become one with the surroundings. This creates a relaxed, joyful and happy environment for herself and others viewing her vibrant work. Sima has been part of multiple exhibitions from New York to the Iranian Culture Show in Beverley Hills to the Sun City of Art in Arizona. Recently Sima has concentrated on abstract landscape and has created her own unique technique. Her paintings are best known for their exotic and effervescent colors as well as their natural qualities. The results following her unique art work are flowing care-free designs with a delicate paint quality. Sima moved to Minnesota in 2001. She has become accustomed to the dramatic weather changes that occur in Minnesota. The natural surroundings and landscapes in Minnesota have influenced her works of art. In 2012 Sima was invited to have some of her originals to be published in a coffee table art book called International Contemporary Masters V1 by World Wide Art Book publishing. In 2015 Sima received an Honorable Mention Award in competition between 415 artists throughout the world from Arta Vita International Competition.

"Sima Amid Wewetzer has no restriction in her work. Her search for freedom has found refuge through the use of representational object, which materialize her spiritual relationship with the physical environment. She makes apparent her creative composure and ability to introduce new sprung dimension to visual Artistic perspective. All of Sima's works continue to complement one another."
