Have a great weekend! Earth is our only home.

“… Uzun bir süre beklediğimizi hatırlıyorum. Neden sonra başını çevirip bize baktı. Ne istediğimizi o an hissetmişti sanki. Parkasının cebinden neyini çıkarıp üfemeye başladı. Bir çok makamda dolaştıktan sonra Bestenigar makamında karar kıldı. Benim ve Özgen’nin gözlerinden yaşlar süzülüyordu. Neyini yine parkasının cebine koyarak “haydi s…t… rin gidin.” diyerek bizi bir güzel uğurlamıştı.“... @sungurto ‘nun anılarını kaleme aldığı Dizdariye Yokuşu’nu bir solukta okuyacaksınız. Kapak illüstrasyonunu @hiyelda’nın eseri. Sayfasını ziyaret edin, işlerine bayılacaksınız. Takip etmeyi de ihmal etmeyin:) @pulatseyma , @nildagok ve @ataycengiz e de bitmeyen des'tekleri ve sabırları için sonsuz teşekkürler. Mütevazı olabilirim ama bu kez olamayacağım:) Bu kitap fikri benim başımın altından çıktı, çünkü kitaptakileri birebir kendisinden dinlemek çok keyifliydi. Neden olmasın dedim. Ve Sungur Pulat’ın başının etini yiye yiye bugüne geldik. 12 yıl sonra kitabı basıldı. Kitaba naçizane katkım kapağı tasarlayarak ve Neyzen Tevfik’le olan anının illüstrasyonunu yaparak oldu. Çok yakında kitap imza günü olacak. Ne zaman ve nerede olacağını buradan ilan edeceğim. Kitabi internetten sipariş verin yada en yakın kitapçıdan edinin, imza günü için hazır olun:) After a long wait who knows why, he turned his head, and looked at us. Somehow he figured out what we wanted. Then, he pulled out his ney from his coat, and started to blowing it. We were weeping. When he finished, he put his ney back, and said ‘Now, get the f..k out of here!’ That was his way of saying goodbye! “ A memoir written by @sungurto The cover illustration by @hiyelda ,check out her page for amazing artwork! Special thanks to @pulatseyma @nildagok and @ataycengiz for their endless support. I could be humble but I will not this time:) I was the person came up with the book idea, and insisted Sungur Pulat to write it. I was only be able to design the cover and also illustrated one of his stories. #book #bookcover #illustration #illustrator #coverillustration #design #memoir #designer #lifestory #autobiography #inkonpaper #storytelling #meditation #dervish #rumi #twirling #doodles #doodle #drawing #zentangle
One of the greatest masters of the animation world, Richard Williams passed away. He was such an inspiration to us, animators with his unusual approach to 2D animation. His best known work was Who Framed Roger Rabbit. He animated for 74 years! His book The Animator’s Survival Kit have become a major resource for emerging animators. This character is called Zigzag from his film The Thief and The Cobbler. You can see the similarities between Zigzag and Jaffar from Aladdin. Rest In Peace Master. . . . . . . . . #richardwilliams #richardwilliamsanimation #animatorssurvivalkit #animator #rogerrabbit #whoframedrogerrabbit #thethiefandthecobbler #zigzag #2danimation #animtionmaster #disney #animationmaster #animation #traditionalanimation
Glad to finish! You must have a target to hit. But, as a karate master says: “ If you put one of your eyes on the target, you will have only one to reach it.” Even though, you keep both of your eyes open, your heart and mind always must be wide open as well. . . . . . . . . . . . #illustration #task #novel #artwork #comic #graphicnovel #storyboard #archer #marvel #publishing #agent #agency #storyteller #illustrator #artgallery #warrior #arrow #drawing #inkonpaper #patterns #publisher #brush #keepwalking #graphicnovel #artist #instaart #ink #artshow #comics @provoque.magazine @harpercollinsus @bloomsburypublishing @simonandschuster @purewowbookclub @midtowncomics @ixicomics @darkhorsecomics @littlebrown @imagecomics @fantagraphics
It’s 03:02am (Istanbul/Turkey time zone.) The longest 45 seconds in my life. We used to live with earthquakes until August 17, 1999. When it started, my wife and I grabbed our 5.5 months old son from his bed, and stood under his room’s door frame. Our dog was moving around our legs with excitement. I was trying to calm us. After 15 minutes or so, the vibration slowed down. But then, it started again even stronger. From my heart I said: “It’s over!” I was looking up to the ceiling and down to the floor, which one gonna break first. Afterward, we were fine. We spent 3 days outside, in our car. But thousands of people lost their lives in the other city. We will never forget it..#earthquake #istanbul #lives #savelives #safe #suffering #prayers #getready
I have tons of unfinished stuff stacked up waiting for me. I want to finish this one which I started a couple years ago. Inking is such an interesting process. You can ruin your sketch or make it even better:) . . . . . . . #illustration #task #novel #artwork #comic #graphicnovel #storyboard #archer #marvel #publishing #agent #agency #storyteller #illustrator #artgallery #warrior #arrow #drawing #inkonpaper #patterns #publisher #brush #keepwalking #graphicnovel #artist #instaart #ink #artshow #comics @provoque.magazine @harpercollinsus @bloomsburypublishing @simonandschuster @purewowbookclub @midtowncomics @ixicomics @darkhorsecomics @littlebrown @imagecomics @fantagraphics @hifructosemag @juxtapozmag @drawnandquarterly @simonbooks @penguinbooks @love.watts @giantrobotstore @flatiron_books @penguinrandomhouse @randomhouse
