Beril continued her education at Parsons School of Design, New York in Printmaking. She attended course workshops at various museums including The Metropolitan Museum of Art. She opened 6 solo exhibitions in Ankara, Istanbul and New York; and contributed group exhibitions since 2009.
As an artist, she considers art not only to draw & illustrate but also to transfer in to different mediums and make an impact on people.
As a road-tripper, she keeps art journals to record memories. She teaches her art methods through private classes and workshops & collaborates with corporate firms in designing artworks. She currently lives in Istanbul and continues creating, illustrating and dreaming.
"I never stuck into a particular style in arts. I love to experience and try everything as much as I can. Our lives are changing day by day which I don't resist at all. This change leads me to experience more in a way of learning and growing inside. I am somebody, but I love the feeling being nobody. Growth is in our nature. So why would I stuck into single matter, if I have the chance to become anyone or be anything."
