Heading to art school at the age of 49, Nazife Bilgin Hazar has shown that it’s never too late to pursue a dream
. “I went to university when I was 49.”
“I hadn’t studied high school topics since I graduated,” Hazar recalls. “So I went to a study centre in 2010 [to prepare for the university exam] and asked the students there if they would mind me sitting in on one class. The subject was geometry, and they said they didn’t mind at all.” Nazife Bilgin Hazar successfully passed her university entrance exams, and earned a place at Mersin University Fine Arts Faculty Painting division in 2011. The idea for painting murals came when she was asked in 2014 to paint one for a temporary animal shelter as a final for a class she was enrolled in. A first-time mural painter, Hazar chose a variation on Grant Wood’s “Nazife Bilgin Hazar’s take on ‘American Gothic’ at an animal shelter, 2014.
Bilgin says she wanted to give the overworked medical students and staff a welcome break by painting a seascape.
