Who is Yılmaz Aydın?  (1976-Eskişehir)

He was born in Eskişehir in 1976.

Following these duties, he founded his own advertising agency in Ataşehir, Istanbul, and after running it for many years, he continues to paint as well as provide design services in the Hendek district of Sakarya.

Many elements such as all the colors, figures, rhythm, architectural structures and reflections of nature inspire him in his paintings. In his works, the painter sometimes takes people on a journey in nature, sometimes this journey extends to Paris and turns into a sweet break in front of the Eiffel Tower, and sometimes it takes people to beautiful, colorful streets we have never seen before. cities of our country. Dynamism in his figurative paintings draws us into the painting, bringing us together with the reality of the moment and the vibrant colors of nature. Boats sailing in blue seas, red evening hills, grand green plane trees, dark pink begonias…

'Painting' has always been a passion for him throughout his working life. As a result of his efforts and care to improve himself in this direction, he continues to work in his own workshop, as well as participating in many group exhibitions.
