Location: Turkey

I was born in Baku, Azerbaijan in September 1990. I am a painter. I moved to Istanbul with my family in 1993. I completed my elementary and secondary education in Istanbul. Following my high school graduation, I attended Yeditepe University, one of the major Turkish fine arts school, after showing a major success in the university entrance exam, which lead me to become entitled to obtain a full scholarship for my entire undergraduate education.
I graduated from Yeditepe University in 2013.
I feel very fortunate for having had the privilege of spending five years at Yeditepe University, all of which were challenging and intellectually inspiring. During those years, I learned how to make talented use of my potential, explore all technics in depth and question everything that does not fit my reasonable way of thinking. Following my undergraduate education I started my graduate education also in Yeditepe University. I completed all my courses and I'm at the stage of submission of my thesis which is on Nature Abstraction.
Me and my works are influenced from the nature. I live with my family in Istanbul.When I was a child I was heavily influenced by my father and his paintings. I want to be a great painter that is why I need to participate different competitions around the globe. I often walk in cities and try to find objects and the way they are percieved by the people are reflected in my paintings. I paint landscape in an abstract expressionist style, I try to challenge existing nature because this nature has different perceptions in different people. I create nature which has vibrant colors on my canvas. I paint in the studio using references, I also take photos when I travel. I choose to paint oils because this media is very beauty, richness and consistency of the painting and expression is so deep in the colors of my subjects. I prefer to paint in the abstract expressionist style because this style is very dramatic and emotional.
