Began his artistic journey in his early years, marked by a natural affinity for drawing and a fascination with colors. Supported by his family, he pursued his passion at The Institute of Fine Arts in Baghdad, where he majored in painting. Fadhel's exceptional talent garnered recognition, culminating in the award of the Diploma in Excellence, the institute's highest honor.
He was privileged to be one of only three students chosen to further their artistic studies at The College of Fine Arts at the University of Baghdad, from which he graduated in 2000.
Drawing inspiration from Iraqi pioneers and international artists, he positioned himself among a new generation of innovators. Fadhel delved into Modern Art to find his voice, experimenting with inspiration from nature as a formidable force. These influences have since become the hallmark of his artwork.
