Aylin has a BA Honours Degree in Fine Art. She has been painting professionally for around 25 years. Aylin lived abroad for some years throughout the 1990s as a practising artist, painting marine subjects, street scenes and nature.

She works mainly in oils and acrylics using sketches and camera as her reference materials to capture the essence of a scene. Aylin’s source of inspiration is normally her travels in the United Kingdom and abroad, where she covers marine subjects, street scenes, and landscapes.

In this exhibition, Aylin focuses on nature represented as a precious part of our lives, and some of these paintings include figures as part of the scene. She is interested in the effects of light and shadow captured in oils. “Painting is the heart and soul for me.”
