Artist Showcase: Kerem Beyit

by Marina J. Lostetter

Published in Dec. 2015 (Issue 39) | 138 words

Kerem Beyit is a Turkish illustrator, whose work has been featured by Wizards of the Coast, Disney, Paizo Publishing, Blizzard Entertainment, Lucasarts, Simone & Schuster, and many others. Drawing has been a passion of his ever since he could remember. In his homeland, art is not perceived to be a way to earn a living, therefore it took a while for him to adopt his passion professionally, but since 2004 he has been working in a very disciplined fashion. Book covers, character design and fantasy-themed illustrations in general make up the bulk of his works. Learn more at kerembeyit.daportfolio.com.

[Editor’s Note: Typically we would publish an interview with the artist here, but Kerem was not available to answer our questions, so herewith we present solely his art gallery instead. Enjoy!]
