Hi! Merhaba!
It’s Şeymanur Peru,
a freelance illustrator based in İstanbul/Türkiye.
Whether it's food or illustration I love making things that feed me both inside and outside. I am currently focused on editorial, packaging, and branding projects. But I'm always hungry for other ideas too :) So don’t hesitate, if you know a good brief or two or a project that we can both enjoy, write to me! It was nice to meet you!

Growing up I always enjoyed making things with my hands. (A.K.A. that crafty girl who was drawing on her desk all the time :) I think I love the power of making things “a bit nicer and in my way”. That's why I studied Architecture but that's another story :)
I am a passionate human being about “exploring life itself” and building “living things” around it. And my favorite tool to use is illustration.
Daily life, emotions, nature, relationships, and stories are both my treasures and my inspirations. And, should I say I love to observe? With that tiny music in my head :)
My work generally consists of symbolic, psychological, and a bit of abstract narrative too. I love to develop my visual narrative in a magical way. People generally call my work “atmospheric”. I also love to animate them whether it's gifs or short films. It feels alive:) And made me feel alive too :)
Did I mention, that I love collaborating and bonding with other creatives too? That's why I have been a proud member of Inkygoodness Collective since 2024 and İllüstrasyon Klubü since 2022.
