Welcome to Spring!

CactuSueños exhibition ended on 14th of March. As it seemed like another page closed in my book of life, not more than few days after another one opened and we entered to the spring. Landscapes looks gorgeous covered with green colors.The sky is bluer than ever... The creativity is in the air...

I have been busy organizing the studio these days and did a lot of archiving and scanning job for my new e-book "Early Works". I was lucky that my mother saved most of my early works. I brought these artworks (drawings, pastels and watercolors) with me in my last trip to Istanbul. Also I found some very nice photos from these period. Soon it will be available, stay tuned...
