Riding through imaginary world...

This is a personal work I made lately.
Some fun is going on out there :)



My world...

When I decided to have a blog site, I needed a painting to represent me and "My World", as I named it....

So this is how I made it. Yess... This is me!


Berna's Audition Poster...

This is a poster I made for my dear friend Berna for her audition here in Barcelona...
This figure is a caricature of her. While playing her flute she is like over the clouds so this is how I chose to draw her.



Then I had a very challenging offer from the same publisher. They were asking me to illustrate a 64 paged activity book for children. It was very exciting and I learned a lot through the 5 months of work process. Here are some of them...

The book had ten animal characters with different personalities...





























And one day, a publisher in Turkey contacted me to illustrate some pages of a trimestral child magazine so it was my first official step into the field...





My early time works...

Not a long time but about 2 years ago becoming an illustrator for children's books was a big wish and a dream for me. I had discovered this in me while creating characters for a game project.


Yess...

Designing cute characters was fun and why wasn't I doing it on children's books. So I started all by myself to try out some sketches and to find out what kind of a painting style would reflect me more. So these are some examples of my beginning steps...




Since childhood pastel painting had been one of my favorite techniques and in digital painting I looked for a similar texture...





This set of characters are the ones that I've designed for the online game we made for Ülker, one of the biggest food producing companies in Turkey. My first experience on character design.

Hi...
As a beginning to introduce my blog, here I'll be posting and sharing my works of illustration and also some other stuff belonging to my world which I'm interested in and find they're worth sharing with.
I'm an illustrator for children books who was born in İstanbul and now living in Barcelona. Before starting illustrating I worked as a graphic designer and then joined a team of online game designers as a character designer. It was the moment when I discovered my great interest in illustrating and went for it. Now I'm working as a freelance artist.
