During the 80s and early 90s his paintings were very atmospheric and poetic, mostly creating a mysterious and nostalgic mood reminding the stories of One Thousand and One Nights the book he later illustrated three times.

[16] His paintings became more abstract, the figures transformed into faceless and often genderless geometric shaped human bodies and animals and also words found their way into his works.

[17] In late 2000s while his paintings were becoming extremely abstract, some of his illustrative tone came back and the geometric shaped figures gave place to colored masses and drippings making the body of works around the hovering faces.

For years, his main medium in illustration was watercolor and gouache and since the target audiences were children, the style was using colors vividly and transparent and many times having a tinted glass quality.

One of the goals of his work was to use images and colors to help the healing process of Iranian children affected by revolution and the eight years long war.

[20][21] He started making sculptures from early 2000s with common trash like empty bottles, dolls, polystyrene packaging,[22][23] wooden parts from discarded furniture and papier-mâché.
