The Story Behind Turlitu

TURLITU – Art That Finds the Light Again

​

Some art doesn’t just tell stories – it awakens them. In a smile that shines brighter because it has known darkness. In colors that are not only beautiful, but meaningful. My work lives in this in-between space: between pain and joy, between loss and hope – between life and light.

​

Before becoming a full-time artist, I completed a Master’s degree in Landscape Architecture – a field that deepened my sense for spatial emotion, balance and natural composition. But my true artistic journey began where words often fall short: in personal experiences that shaped me deeply, yet never broke me. I've learned that an authentic smile often takes more courage than tears – and that real joy tends to grow where we least expect it.

​

Each painting I create is more than an image – it's an emotional snapshot. A window into human resilience, a celebration of the strength it takes to be joyful.

​

My creative process merges digital precision with traditional craftsmanship. Every piece starts digitally and is printed on high-quality canvas – but that’s just the beginning. I then build layers using oil and acrylic paints, often combining special mediums to create unexpected light effects. Each brushstroke carries not only color, but emotion. Depth comes not just from the paint – but from the story behind it.

​

In summer 2025, my work will appear – including the cover – in the renowned architecture and design magazine Baubibel. This marks a meaningful milestone in bringing my art to a wider, international audience.

​

What I paint isn’t perfection. It’s truth, in all its fragile, radiant, human beauty. My work is an invitation to feel more deeply, smile more often – and find light, even after the storm.
