Hossein Khoshraftar was born in 1980 in Khaf, located in Khorasan Razavi province. At first, he received a post-graduate degree in visual arts education from Mashhad Teacher Education University, and then he received a bachelor's degree in painting from Tehran University of Art.

Khoshraftar has participated in numerous group and solo exhibitions and has collaborated with different galleries, among which we can mention: Ehsan, Shokouh, Vali, Hengam, Moura, and Art Lab Gallery in Lebanon. The works of Hossein Khoshraftar have been exhibited in cities such as Beirut, Istanbul, Paris and Los Angeles.

He learned painting from Master Khalili in Mashhad and then traveled to North Khorasan to paint from nature. The result of this period was small impressionist works. After that, Khoshraftar studied nature painting in a more realistic way and tried to include the line more in his works, and after that he gave more importance to color; He says about this: "The reason for my move from works in which the line had a significant contribution to the works in which color takes the first place was to create variety in the work. I thought that the audience would not be satisfied by seeing works that have a uniform subject, theme, and rhythm, and I should change this way; Also, personally, I needed to find a new way to convey and inspire my feelings."
