I have been designing characters ever since I wanted to tell a story in my paintings. Because a good story ultimately needs a character.
I design characters with both traditional and digital techniques, which I have focused on especially after the pandemic.
Although a large part of my inspiration comes from my observations on human relations, the geography and culture I live in are also quite effective.
I create from the stories and mythologies I heard from my great-grandmother. I use elements such as abundance, wisdom, maturity and justice in my designs. I also deal with terms like exploitation, unconsciousness, gluttony, selfishness, which are the exact opposite of all of these.
When I was a child, while everyone was playing with their toys, I played with plants and flowers. I maintain this influence in many of my designs.
