I was born in Istanbul, Turkey one of the most beautiful cities in the world! More than a home, it is my Love and Passion! That's why I desire to paint Istanbul more than anything else.

Art have always been in my blood even when I was under tremendous stress from organizing concerts and cultural events for the crowds. I watched many famous artists perform on stage as I was on duty at Istanbul Foundation for Culture and Art (IKSV) .

I have always had a special connection with the traditional art forms. Many years ago I met an amazing artist, teacher and friend named Sabine Buchmann. She is a French artist that lives in Istanbul. I am proud to call myself her protege as a painter. I have been painting in the Ottoman Miniature style since 2001. I will continue to learn and paint in as many different type of art forms that I can discover. Life is better with imaginative colors...!
