Mohsen (Mo) Rifaat was born in Egypt and has resided in Canada since 1968. He holds degrees in architecture and urban planning, and has enjoyed a wide-ranging career which has taken him to many far-away places. Although he spent his professional life in the business, government and diplomatic worlds, Mo has never been long removed from his love of art. He has been deeply influenced by his mother, Fatma Rifaat, the celebrated Egyptian watercolour artist, and, in recent years, has developed his watercolour technique through studies at the Art Gallery of Ontario, and the Blue Mountain School of Landscape Painting. Mo is a member of the Willowdale Group of Artists in Toronto, and the Georgian Bay Association for Creative Arts. He regularly holds pencil drawing and watercolour classes for beginner and advanced students.
