 (25.06. - 04.07. 2010)
    
	 I 
	was born on the 4th August, 1951 in Gaziantep, Turkey and lived my childhood 
	in Istanbul. I have studied at the Gaziantep Private High School. My talent for painting attracted my teachers’ attention. I also worked with 
	marbling (ebru), batik, textile colour techniques and stained glass. 
	Furthered by my teacher, the interest and admiration I have for the art of 
	painting has been turned into a serious and conscious occupation.
 I moved to Ankara in 1983, but live now in Istanbul since 2000.
 I attended the oil painting classes of Lütfü Günay and Ismail Acar and the 
	water colour painting classes of Hikmet Duruer, Işıl Özışık as well as Sabri 
	Akça. I had the chance to study art works in various national and 
	international museums. I continue working with water colour and oil in my 
	personal atelier in Istanbul.
 I am a member of the International Plastic Art Society ("U.P.S.D."), GESAM, 
	the Ankara Women Artists Association ("A.K.R.D.") and the Watercolour 
	Artists Group ("S.R.G.").
 I have opened seven individual exhibitions and participated in numerous 
	group exhibitions. I also participate regularly in the exhibitions of the 
	groups and associations I am involved with. My paintings are part of 
	selected and private collections and bank collections in Turkey and abroad.
