Reflections of Istanbul abstract fine art
I wanted to capture Istanbul not as a literal cityscape, but as a feeling – a place that lives in layers of time, texture, and light. The deep blues and golds in this piece reflect the city’s enduring beauty and the passage of centuries that have shaped it. I built this using weathered textures and blended tones, allowing the forms of domes and spires to emerge naturally, as if they were being rediscovered within the paint itself.
My art renders this in posters. prints and overpainted canvases. My studio and gallery in Cornelius North Carolina is a place where I create and invite guests to participate in the creation process. Colors, Sizes, Textures and styles are all areas where my clients can contribute to the final product. Thank you for supporting my work here in The USA and looking further at my The istanbul Collection.
