I was born in 1960.After graduation from high school, I continued to my education in the field of business administration. In 1981 graduation and then in the field of fine arts.Started to specialize in banking ,in foreign exhange department as manager in Istanbul - at the same time initiation to ‘drawing’ and “mosaic art”.

In 1999 I left Istanbul because I had decided to get away from its chaos and moved to Bodrum, I am interested in pebble mosaic for a long time and then I’m influenced from ancient mosaic which have very big importance on cultural interaction.I make these works myself by hand cutting of natural tumbled stones, ie.marble,traverten one by one.

Since 1999 I live in Bodrum / Turkey and between 1999 and 2007 I have my own workshop named MOSAIC HOME in the holiday-village Bitez, Bodrum. I continue working as a mosaic artist.
