About Hannah
When registering for her first semester of college, Hannah discovered that Intro to Photography was full. She had to fulfill an art requirement to graduate, and painting was the next best thing.
Over the next 3 years at Drew University, Hannah would go on to take classes in painting and drawing, beginning the journey of discovering themes and motifs that are both beautiful and meaningful to her.
At the same time, she was struggling with the mental and physical symptoms of anxiety, and began attending weekly therapy, and later starting medication. It was through these decisions and healing processes that she realized she wanted to paint about women and mental health, but not in the way one might assume.
She became fascinated with the nuanced topics of mental health. Setting boundaries, loving oneself, learning to accept imperfection while simultaneously appreciating progress. Through all of this, Hannah feels more impassioned than ever to create, both for herself and the incredible women that may connect with these themes.
Hannah is now attending New Jersey City University to receive her MA in Fine Arts.
