Art Perspective;
Art is the most effective way to express feelings and thoughts. It is the expression of imagination. The artist, who focuses on inner reality rather than objective reality in her paintings, reflects the expression of her inner self abstractly on her canvas with mass, color and dense textures with the acrylic and mixed techniques she uses.
