Hello everyone! This is my first prompt for the #dreamjourneymay . The first prompt was “Garden of Wonderful Discoveries”. Since we can not go outside I thought dreaming of a world in our plant would be so fun and cute🥰 I wanted to draw Turkish characters and plants since I miss my country so much and this helped me to travel there by imagining☺️ I hope this painting will bring you to my wonderful garden and bring you joy🌸 #dreamjourneymay #illustration #procreate #procreateart #kidlitart #kidlit #kidlitartist #childrensbookillustration #childrensbookstagram #childrensbookillustrator #turkishart #turkishartist #painting #child #dreaming #instart #artchallenge #artoftheday #characterdesign #stayhomeart #stayhome #daydreaming #plants #homedecor #nurseryart #wallart #wallartdecor https://www.instagram.com/p/CAFjW1WDtJQ/?igshid=1bwntq2lxnrri

Hi everyone! I have shared sketches about isolation and parenting related to quarantine life from my perspective. So I decided to paint one of them and might do the other one as well. For me isolation is something i have been experiencing quite a long time. Being away from my parents and friends is something hard for me and especially having a child without no help was also is a pressure. And with this lockdown experience It had more pressure on me. This isolation feeling forced me to find solutions to adapt to new environments. It also made me realize that we need to face our fears and accept our feelings. Those are the signals for change. Like pyhsical pain this is our soul pain. In this painting I just wanted to tell everyone that it is ok to feel all those strong feelings thats how we cope and find solutions. #stayhome #illustration #editorialillustration #isolation #selfisolation #stayathome #stayathomemom #stayathomemomlife #art #magazineillustration #pandemic #painting #artoftheday #psychology #mentalhealth #mindfulness #mindful #instart #design #feelings #lonely #quarantine #quarantineartclub #quarantineillustration #home #digitalart #digitalartist #cloud #house #rain https://www.instagram.com/p/B-4BNNqjCQF/?igshid=iwdp4r8kityz

Working on the goat character sketch for the African illustration😊 I am trying to include african elements such as flute and shapes on the goat. Still experimenting and I got so inspired while checking for african masks🥰 #illustration #animalsketch #kidlitart #kidlit #kidlitartist #sketchbook #art #wip #process #artprocess #music #flute #cultureart #illüstrasyon #characterdesign #stayhome #childrensbookillustration https://www.instagram.com/p/B-i6F83jgwG/?igshid=1y0sfq1vdzgz1

A quick sketch before sleeping😊 trying to warm up between research for characters and sketching for the African illustration. Got inspired from an vintage photo🥰 Listening music and having a little time to myself feels so nice.
