Selma

Artist

I retired after a long and proud career at the Turkish Ministry of Justice. I never silenced the entrepreneurial spirit within me; while continuing my public service, I also managed different businesses, always striking a balance between my professional responsibilities and my passion for creating and building. The custom sofa design business that I ran with my dear Zafer was the greatest stepping stone in discovering and developing my artistic side. With the tranquility of Şarköy, I completely devoted myself to art, picked up the brush with even greater passion, and began reflecting my emotions onto canvases. Today, I use my paintings not just as works of art, but as bridges to reach those in need, donating them to foundations and sharing the joy of helping others.
