and Spanish two years in Spain and afterwards she
worked for the great industrialist and art lover
Dr. Nejat F. Eczacıbaşı in Istanbul. Here she got
to know her husband and chose to live in Istanbul.
When her husband - a member of the Rotary Club -

her intellectual side and hence organized an
exhibition with works of the assistants belonging

shown in Frankfurt and Vienna. She had been so
much impressed during her duty of this
organization, that she could never again get rid
of Fine Arts. She was a guest student at the Mimar
Sinan University and took private lessons from the
assistants Tanju Demirci and İrfan Önürmen. She
worked hard and oıpened her first solo exhibition
after 4 years. So far she had several

group exhibitions.
