Maryam Fardinfard (born in Iran in 1984) initially was interested in creating portraits and paintings of the human anatomy, but she later shifted her focus to painting landscapes, still life, and wild-life. She began her journey in painting using colored pencil, gouache, and ink, but she now also uti-lizes colored pencil, oil painting, and pastels in her hyper-realistic painting style, which she has continued to develop up to the present day. Maryam has a Bachelor's degree in Physical Education and a Master's degree in Movement Corrective and Sports Pathology.

Despite being mostly self-taught, Maryam had two private teachers for a brief period during her learning process. These classes took place in her birthplace, Isfahan. Currently based in Dubai, Maryam is working on a new private painting collection in addition to working on assignments from her clients.
