» About Saim


Saim Caglayan was born in Istanbul, Turkey and came to the United States in 1968 to study Architecture. After a successful career as a sculptor, Saim has been plein air painting the landscapes of the California desert, coastline and Islands of Hawaii for many years now.

His goal as a painter is to capture the ever-transient light and its colors within a composition of balance and harmony, whether of wilderness, which we are desperately in need of preserving, or of our human interactions and habitats, which we are required by a higher value to nurture.
