Hi there!

I am Cansu.

My journey into the world of art began with a background in architecture, where I developed a keen eye for detail and a love for design. But it was when I stumbled upon watercolour painting that I truly found my passion. The way the colors blended and flowed on the paper sparked something inside me, igniting my creativity in ways I never imagined.

As I delved deeper into the world of art, I discovered the exciting realm of digital art, opening up a whole new avenue for me to explore. Through countless hours of self-study and experimentation, I honed my skills in digital illustration, blending traditional techniques with modern technology to create captivating artworks. Eager to learn more, I enrolled in workshops and courses focused on children's book illustration, immersing myself in the whimsical world of storytelling and character design.

Inspiration

From sunrise to sunset, life and nature is full of feelings and inspirations. I love to blend my brush with endless colours of the surroundings and reflect my feelings in that very moment in my art. I sometimes capture the moment to work on it in during the following times or start drawing immediately to become one with it.

My source of inspiration could be the animals, nature, museums, history, a special event, or just the feelings around me. I keep developing myself everyday being aware of the life itself.

Approach

I love to blend and use both traditional methods and digital tools in my artwork. Combining with traditional design methods with modern touches is signature. In some of my works I start with painting on canvas and then do the retouches with digital tools.

I always begin with rough sketches and then refine my illustrations layer by layer, using a variety of digital brushes and effects to achieve the desired look.

I thrive on experimentation and pushing the boundaries of creativity in my illustrations. Whether it's trying out new digital brushes or exploring unconventional mixed media combinations, I embrace experimentation as a key part of my artistic process, allowing me to continually evolve and innovate.
