In his childhood, artist Kerem Beyit enjoyed drawing, sketching and imitating covers drawn by his favourite fantasy artist, Frank Frazetta.

During his college years he was inspired to take up drawing again, partly due to meeting H.R. Giger. Giger’s use of airbrush and contrasting of realistic style with fantastical subjects had a great impact on Beyit.
