Semire Akyazi
I am a freelance artist living and working from my studio in Izmir, Turkey. I have a Master's degree from DEU Faculty of Fine Arts, Ceramics Dept.
After working on ceramics for many years I began to draw portraits in a detailed and realistic style with pastel pencils and soft pastels.
I create portraits on a commission basis for clients to draw from and all over the world. I use photographs to draw from and prefer the very best materials.
For my pastel portraits I use a selection of various pencils and soft pastels for the best color palette; Faber Castell Pitt, Derwent series, Rembrandt soft pastels, Canson Mi-Teint pastel papers and boards, Clairfontaine pastelmat and papers
