Onur’s Art Folk

Onur is working on his Art Folk series these days. He visited the other day and took a bunch of photos. You can see the rest of the collection here.

I was at The Met yesterday for Francis Bacon: A Centenary Retrospective. I feel really sorry for Bacon naysayers.

whitening
Onur and I painting the interior window pane in the studio. The ugly burgundy/brown color was bothering me since I moved in, and finally we got a chance to cover it with white. Took some time-lapse photos of us masking, painting, then finally removing the mask over the course of three days. Check it out:

daisy wreath
// Last week – with Onur’s help – I painted my separator window frames to white. I had these wreaths I got from Sirince, a village near Izmir/Turkey. When you visit, you buy one of these hand made fresh daisy wreaths, wear them and walk around with them. It looks quite pretty.
I managed to bring a couple back with me and I hung them next to my evil eye protectors, over the new painted windows.
I really love how they complement each other.
