I’m Nehir Artunc, an aspiring animator and illustrator based in Tekirdağ, Turkey. I focus on visual storytelling through character design, sketch-based studies, webtoon-style panels, and animation-related pre-production like storyboarding and sequencing. I’m currently studying Painting at Namık Kemal University, building a 21-page portfolio centered on expressive sketchbook practice, emotional narratives, and concept-driven art. I also trained in storyboarding, character design, and comic-style visual storytelling, and I enjoy creating work that connects youth culture, memory, identity, and inner conflict in a friendly, motion-forward style.…I’m Nehir Artunc, an aspiring animator and illustrator based in Tekirdağ, Turkey.
