About The Artwork

- The Galata Tower, built in 1348/49 once was the Genoese settlement's north end. Luckily it survived all times, and today serves as viewing platform and houses a restaurant. My husband was born in Istanbul, and this painting is dedicated to him. The feelings and views you can have from Galata Tower are amazing. Hopefully the Tower will stay for another 670 years! The material is excellent beech wood with a beautiful fine texture. I give rise to the painting by using the wood-burning pen, watercolors, and by taking the individual wood texture into account. The final work is varnished three times, this gives a beautiful soft brilliance, and guarantees everlasting protection. The painting is delivered without frame and hanging hardware. -

I have been fascinated by burning wood already by the time when I was explaining to my little boys how to decorate objects in a simple way using the woodburning pen. While practicing conventional pyrography, I noticeably missed the play of colors. So this had been the reason why I have been busy in learning the art of coloring. A colorful life is important for me. Even on my daily walks I always choose paths and places that offer some kind of colored beauty. I grew up with photo cameras, and taking pictures is another passion of me. My camera is with me many times because taken photographs serve best as basis for my art. The wood-burned motives are colored with watercolors in a perfect way that allows viewers to still clearly recognize the beautiful and unique patterns of the processed wood. This is what makes my art so unique. The strong combination of burned wood and aquarelle led to call it PYROAQUARELLE.
