Freedom

I totally love dolphins! I think they're so adorable, cute, witty,playful and friendly. If i wasn't a human,i would prefer to be dolphin because of these characteristics of dolphins and my love of sea, being in water, swimming and underwater life. I once had this beautiful dream, i was swimming in an ocean with lots and lots of dolphins around me, i was holding one of them tightly which made me move faster in water and that was such fun.I remember waking up with a smile on my face and an unbelievable peace inside me...It was such a wonderful dream!
Since my interest in dolphins, i decided to draw one a while ago, and here's the result:



I set my goals higher everyday
I make my own rules that I will obey
As long as I live
This is the life
I was born to lead
Unique chance for me to express myself
And fulfill my dreams
I'm in control of this ship of mine
And everything will be just fine
Like the wind I'm free to go anywhere
I got my song, it dances in the air
Now I know what to do with my life
So you will hear my freedom call
All those bad things I once went through
Changed into blessings when I changed the point of view
I needed them to growI've changed so much,
I'm finally free
To do what I want without feeling of guilt or fear
It's so amazing
I'm in control of this ship of mine
And everything will be just fine
Like the wind I'm free to go anywhere
I got my song, it dances in the air
Now I know what to do with my life
So you will hear my freedom call

Follow this blog!

This blog i recently created is mostly about arts and life. Life is a much better place with art. I observe a lot, pretty much everything; people, mimics, behaviors, landscapes, buildings, nature, posters, movies, artists, actors, theatre plays, pubs, my ring, your ring, her hat, his beard, its look...:) Everything has a meaning for me, and i want to reflect what i understand from this world and the other worlds ( my dream world, my ideal world, my comics world,my inside and outside world, my theatical world...etc) on paper. And i show you my works- my babies. I would be very very happy to read your comments, your point of view, just feel free to criticize me or add something to my writings...or discuss or just say if you like it or not,don't forget to write why!:) Just help me so that i can improve myself, and publish better works for you.
looking forward to hear from you! bye for now!

The Fear




i don’t know what’s right and what’s real anymore
i don’t know how i’m meant to feel anymore
when do you think it will all become clear?
‘cuz i’m being taken over by the fear




forget about guns and forget ammunition
cause i’m killing them all on my own little mission
now i’m not a saint but i’m not a sinner
now everything's cool as long as i’m getting thinner

About Schmidt



Whose eyes are these?

He's a fascinating actor. He gave life to many many characters that have been remembered throughout many years. Maybe the most charismatic actor ever.One of the greates actors in the whole world. What if i say: WOLF ?

City of God







Have you seen the movie "City of God"?



I just fell in love with its poster. I couldn't resist the temptation and finally drew it. I just love the image and wanted to put it on paper sooooooo badly. Plus, i liked the result, honestly;)

What do you think about my work?-my baby=)

Atatürk



Atatürk... A great leader. We owe so much to him. Here, i'll focus not on his leading abilities or his life but i'll tell you what i felt when drawing this portray of him. First of all, his appearance is a short summary of his personality, i think.Behind sharp and characteristic facial expressions of him- especially the eyebrows- and his serious image,his glimmerring eyes are enlightening the whole area. The curvature on the left side of his mouth is softening the strict appearance and adds clemency and kindness, still keeping the fatherly authoritarian and humanistic image.
What i'd say about his portay's language would be: Tough but sensitive.

It seems like he's looking to you, focusing on you, just yourself but nothing, and seeing your heart, reading what's on your mind, understanding how you feel. Those sharp but shiny looks he throw are giving me courage, i don't know if everyone feels this but i feel stronger after a glance to his portray. It's as if he's watching me.

Atatürk has a very unusual face. It's so hard to reflect his symmetry on paper. I can say that the most challenging drawing i've done up to now is his portray. Even if you think you draw exactly what you see on the original photo of him, and even if you really draw it right, still something missing remains there. A part is missing, in this picture i drew, too. For now, this is the best i can do but maybe in future, after i find out the mystery i'll be able to reflect Atatürk to paper using my chalk again, with everything, without a missing part.

Littlest Things




Lily Allen is one of my favorite singers. Have you listened her song "Littlest Things"? Somehow, this picture i drew makes me remember that song each time. The very little things that you don't even pay that much attention at the time may have a huge inflence on your subconscious. And those "huuugeee things" that you think that are the most important may disappear from your life eventually. And all you remeber at the end is those "little things" like the funny faces someone made to you to make you laugh when you feel down, spending whole weekend lying in your own dirt with him,all the play fightin', all the flirtatious disses.
These are the cornerstone of life, even if they're little. They tell us the truth, they show us the dreams.They make us fly, they make us cry. They're not just "little things", they're more than that. Not materialist, not permanent, don't have guarantee, don't have those big evidences. The evidences you have would be have at the end would be just a piece of paper, a faded flower, an old yellow papered book, a few pictures and a song sang by a vapourous voice...


Emotion




I drew this looking at the cover of a book af mine. The image really influenced me at first sight because this expression of the woman seems so sincere and genuine. It's so real and down to earth bu at the same time delusive and fantastic. I thought why i especially liked this image and concluded that it reflects a part of me.

I'm not a pessimistic person at all, in fact i can say that i'm a real optimist.I always try to see and understand all aspects of life, but focus on positive sides to have a positive duration while i 'm alive, and positive results. However, my senses are so sharp and emotions are intense. I think this helps me being creative but at the same time, hurts in specific situations. Anyways, i think every person creates his/her own world and what you really believe is your reality whatever others say or think. This doen't mean ignoring others' ideas or beliefs- the opposite. I respect the people who dare to find their own truth, their own dreams ,set their goal and chase without giving up.


When i get upset about something, i usually prefer to be alone and think, maybe crt for a while, listen music-especially the types that really touch me, draw sketches, create something or sleep. This short-term depressions may be fruitful sometimes. Like the woman in the picture, i just standstill and think, trying to understand what i feel, why i'm sad and why things turned out this way that upset me. Most of the people can argue with people- their friends, family,boyfriend/ girlfriend or the person who they think caused them to be unhappy to get discharged and blame them for everything. When i'm upset, i just don't want to talk. ı usually don't yell others, don't blame anyone, the first one that i blame would be myself.Therefore, i don't hurt people when i'm angry or sad, i hurt myself!! It's kind of weird and maybe funny, and this doesn't mean that i'm not agressive time to time and hurt others unfortunately.But most of the time, i try to get over it myself, because it's something to do with me and i know that i have to work on it what's in my brain and heart at first, when i have a problem. Then i calm down a little, share it with others and discharge myself in second step,after being just myself and thinking. Since i'm an optimistic person, as i told before, in the end i turn back to normal and be my old self again:)
What do you do when you feel sad? How do you deal with it?

My babies:My drawings:)








I drew this picture while i was in my exchange year in United States, in the arts class of my high school. I was really glad to see that my arts teacher liked it a lot. The portray belongs to someone famous, acutually. Just guess who this woman is in the picture!
I used black chalk to draw it and used my finger, sometimes a piece of cotton for making shady areas.

Just a hint: The famous Holywood star in the picture can be recaognized easier,somehow magically, if you focus on the LEFT eye (w.r.t yourself!!)
