Illustration Friday - Safe
September 4th, 2006
Oil painting on 9″x12″ canvas.

I woke up to a delicious smell of coffee this morning. Me being on a diet for a long time, I craved for a chocolate cake; just the perfect match to coffee, and perfect match to this week’s Illustration Friday topic.

The Turkish traditional shadow theater “Hacivat & Karagöz” was the play I most enjoyed in my childhood. It has a history going as far back as 16th century. It was still popular before TV but nowadays it is only shown on a few special occasions. I hope it is never forgotten completely.
This is an oil painting that I prepared for this weeks’ Illustration Friday topic: Capture
I was so busy working with ceramics and polymer clays, I forgot just how fun the painting was. Fortunately, being away from my studio gave me a chance to replenish my interest. I found that my style has changed a lot. So, it felt like the time that I should start publishing some of my work.

This one above is actually a mixed media work that I created during my trip.

I painted this one specifically for the header image of crebro. It was time for a little make-up.

This one is my most recent work. I just can’t stop painting ![]()
