Especially, Knox Martin's instruction on abstraction has very strong influence.

In addition to paintings of the South Asian nation, the artist has included illustrations of her native Turkey as well as Hawaii and a more abstract work DUYGU KIVANC Lives and works in Turkey and in the United States AQUARIUM, 2019 DIGITALIZED ORIGINAL OIL PAINTING 28.3X23.6 IN. | 72X60 CM.

The artwork is somewhat stylized with characteristically solid elements flowing together to create the scene. The assembled paintings evoke a vivid sense of time and place. While Kivanc clearly experiments with various media, a strong aesthetic point of view is present in each composition too. A few of the best works can be compared with Gauguin in terms of their unnatural color palette and the use of flat interconnecting shapes. These works include "Child Carrying Child" and "Palace Gate Road." Readers who enjoy the style of David Hockney's landscapes will also enjoy "Hills" and "Through the Window" in which soft flowing swathes of fantastical colours evoke a panorama. The subjects of the paintings are mostly landscapes, women and children.
