Turkish American Association's Art Gallery
Ankara, , TR Turkey

Turkish American Association's Art Gallery announces a solo exhibition by Turkish Artist Kaynak Tumer in Ankara,Turkey during the month of January. In his drawings Tümer draws upon the rich treasures of Turkish culture, generally using Turkish handicrafts as his models: copper, brass or silver with a flower, fruit and even a vegetable.

The composition is usually set on a bright, handmade tablecloth or table. Thus, the colors of local handicrafts are reflected on canvas.

Also, Tümer holds first rank in Still Life at an international painting competition, Access to Active Art (UK).

Some of his paintings are exhibited on Tümer’s personal web page (www.kaynaktumer.com)
