I find a lot of inspiration for painting by going out for long walks in the countryside or along the beach, and stopping to pick up and examine things that catch my eye. (Some of these end up in my studio - and later, replicated in paint on a canvas.) I'm fascinated by the endless shapes, textures and details of things like rocks, and try to highlight this variety in my paintings. If my paintings have a message, it is to stop, look more closely at things in nature and discover how unique they are. I began this painting by establishing a balance of shapes, drawing in light charcoal before I started to use paint. I used negative space to give the painting an abstract feel despite the hyper-realistic details, and to keep the eye moving across the canvas. I painted the sides of the picture as well as the front, and coated it with protective UV varnish. It ships in a tube for ease of transport.

Turkey
I am an artist and writer with paintings in private and corporate collections in Turkey, the UK, the United States, Canada and Australia. I live in Adana, Turkey. I am a member of both local and national jury-selected artists' associations and often participate in Turkish-government sponsored exhibitions in other countries. I paint in both figurative and abstract styles, but most recently my interest has been in capturing the kind of details in nature that you would usually pass by without a second glance: things like weathered rocks, broken branches and dying leaves. The idea behind this 'Vanitas' series is perhaps that the value and beauty of the ordinary things in nature lies in their impermanence. Many of my works are built up of multiple layers over a long period of time − using a variety of techniques and tools. Layers of paint are poured, glazed, scratched, and rubbed away until the desired effect is achieved. Each exhibition I take part in brings me into contact with many artists and art lovers, whose feedback and reactions to my work I find invaluable. I continue to develop new techniques and explore new approaches in order to develop my personal response to the world around me.
