Streets of Istanbul Painting

Meet Sasha ​Sasha Ozkan was born and raised in Donetsk, Ukraine. In 2008, she graduated from art college with a degree in 'fine-art', but her real passion for paints and brushes came much later. At the age of 25, the war at homeland, forced relocation to another place, difficult days and fate brought Sasha to new life in Istanbul. Having another cup of coffee on a ferry through the Bosphorus, Sasha realized that office life is not for her - she wants to share her emotions and thoughts with the world through color and lines - this is a passion that she did not realize, but felt all her life. In 2015, Sasha has bought a set of acrylic paints, a couple of canvases and began to paint, without realizing that this is how her long, but pleasant professional way has begun. About creativity Sasha Ozkan experimented with different materials and techniques for a long time to come to her own style - the artist likes freestyle lines, texture and bright colors. Light negligence and etude-style in her works make the paintings alive, full of emotions. Sasha's goal is to fill the canvas and give you energy that will make your heart flutter, thus her paintings have a therapeutic effect on the observer. Colorfulness and richness are what the artist strives for, displaying her favorite themes on canvases - nature, animals and abstract paintings of her soul.
