My artwork has been published in a wide variety of media such as comic magazines, news magazines, books, newspapers. Two of my research-art-works are printed in covers of proceeding. My sculptures are exhibited in Siggraph 2006. This section
mainly includes samples of my hand-drawn 2D artwork and organized in 3 main categories: Caricatures, Cartoons and Illustrations.
Caricatures & Caricature Ideas
-
Caricatures by Morphing: In this work, my goal is to identify the principles of making caricatures.
The caricatures in this series are done
by using photoshop and a morphing program.
There are two continuing projects:
- The caricatures of the Presidents of United States
which includes George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Jimmy Carter,
Ronald Reagan,
George Bush and
Bill Clinton.
- Computer Graphics Researchers which includes
Pierre Bezier, Jim Blinn, Jim Foley, Andy VanDam and
Benoit Mandelbrot.
- Extreme caricatures of Presidents
George W. Bush and Bill Clinton and Vice President Al Gore.
-
Animalization of Faces: In these caricatures, the main idea/challenge is to change both the face and the name
of a person into the face and the name of an animal. Some of them are used in fables/stories I have written.
- Puppet Caricatures: These caricatures are created by sawing stockings around 1985's. Ayetullah Khomeini is published in Yeni Gundem. Also includes Ronald Reagan and Turgut Ozal.
-
3D Caricatures by Ray-Linears:
The caricature of Turgut Ozal and Ronald Reagan. Note that these are from early 1990's. The challenge was to show the power of ray-linears. I lost all original images and models.
-
Collage Caricatures: These caricatures are created as a collage from magazine clippings in 1987. Saddam Hussein caricature is published in Yeni Gundem. Ronald Reagan caricature created from a picture of a hand.
- Painted Style: These caricatures are created by painting using tempera type paint. From early 1980's.
- Cartoon Style: These caricatures are created using my cartoon style during late 1980's.
- Caricature From Name: These caricatures are created using character's name. Just two examples as proof of concept.
Cartoons
-
Rhyming Cartoons: In these relatively new approach, the goal is to show that starting with two rhyming words, we create a simple story
-
Computer Graphics Cartoons: These cartoons are used in my popular science articles on Computer Graphics in Cumhuriyet Newspaper Science & Technology section during 1997.

Others: I do not have copies of my cartoons published before 1984. I have huge number of cartoons published in Girgir and Ses. I also have a few published in comic magazines suc as Firt, Carsaf, Mikrop, Limon and Hibir. When I found cartoons, I will scan and include some of those.
