Bysarıipek, whose childhood years and education took place in Karabük, developed an interest in art during his primary school years. Despite growing up in an environment where art was not generally appreciated, he continued to draw and explore by filling every available space with drawings throughout his school life.
His introduction to traditional art came with a brief experience in the art of illumination (tezhip). Due to its immutable rules, he preferred the freedom of movement offered by the art of Miniature, which he could explore more freely. In 2017, he began his art education in this field under the guidance of Taner Alakuş, an important representative of contemporary miniature art, at the Traditional Arts Academy.
Bysarıipek, who prefers working with watercolor, gouache, acrylic, and gold on paper, also takes advantage of the benefits of the digital world alongside traditional techniques to create different artworks.
Currently residing in Istanbul, Bysarıipek continues his work in the pursuit of new stories and different artistic endeavors. Looking ahead, he dreams of holding his first solo exhibition in a charming Safranbolu house in his hometown in the future.
