My name is Derya. I'm a girl in mid of 20's from Bursa of Turkey. I study bussiness administration at university but I do want to do major in fashion designing. I also do major in photography and photo manipulation. Have a look at my portfolio. I love the way of conceptual art and in my works I focus on vintage theme. When I don't do uni work, I make stuff for myself and my surroundings. I have two cats which are named Lumen and Luna. In my spare time I love to sew, knit, cook, read, do research.
