Galata Tower - view fromthe sea to the Galata Tower, Istanbul Painting

When people ask me what is my subject matter, I find it difficult to answer immediately. I feel like a sweet tooth in a candy store. Do I really have to pick one? I’m surrounded by so many beautiful, interesting and inspiring sings and subjects. Some of them are obviously brilliant; others require attention and curiosity to reveal their uniqueness and beauty. It can be an interesting story or a rare, hard-to-grasp feeling. I think, human happiness is about many little joyous things and moments. We just have to not miss them. It’s very easy and very difficult in the meantime. When I find something wonderful, I feel a little happier. I want to share this feeling. My artworks are a way to show people my little but amazing discoveries. I’ve been drawing all my life. But it was never my profession. Now I have every intention of changing that. It’s a really big deal to me to say: “I’m an Artist”. I’ve been experimenting with different mediums before, but watercolor is my greatest passion. Watercolor allows me to work fast, with the same breath. My emotions don’t fade before the painting’s finished. I’m constantly studying and perfecting my technique. I like to explore the potential of this paint. Watercolor has its own character, which must be taken into account. I need a lot of backbone to “gain respect” of watercolor. Every my artwork is my master and friend. I’m grateful them to experience. Now my goal is to find them new friends, to let my paintings make someone’s life a little better, little more beautiful and little more joyous.
