As a brand designer I have been creating and managing art & design projects for over 10 years!

Hello, I'm Özge Sapancı, a passionate artist, designer, entrepreneur, and professional based in Manisa, Turkey. Art has been an integral part of my life since childhood, guiding me to focus on art education after leaving the Faculty of Business Administration at Akdeniz University. In 2003, I earned admission to the Department of Painting at Akdeniz University's Faculty of Fine Arts through successful talent exams. Following the completion of my master's degree in the same department, I delved into the realm of digital art and design, honing my skills through extensive training and teaching art in private schools.

What sets me apart from other graphic and web designers is my deep understanding of the foundational principles of art and design, cultivated through immersive experiences and exploration of creation processes before venturing into graphic and web design.

In 2012, alongside comprehensive training from Bilge Adam Information Technologies, I continued to explore various fields such as digital art, illustration, character design, background design, storyboarding, layout creation, comic writing and illustrating, and children's book creation. Though these disciplines may be categorized separately in literature, they all revolve around project planning, storytelling, and the principles of art and design, fostering a multidimensional approach and contributing to my uniqueness among designers.

Furthermore, my entrepreneurial ventures in e-commerce have provided me with invaluable opportunities to apply and refine skills in brand creation, market research, target audience analysis, legal considerations, SEO, corporate identity development, social media management, and digital marketing.

More recently I have put AI at the centre of my workflow. I build web apps and mobile apps with AI-assisted development in Claude Code; alongside classic SEO I make brands visible in AI search through GEO and AIO (ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overview); and in animation and video I blend tools such as Runway, Kling and Veo with my traditional 2D animation background. Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Midjourney and Adobe Firefly are part of my daily toolkit.

I am eager to share my knowledge and experiences to shape the creation processes of other brands. If you share my enthusiasm, let's connect and make a difference together!
