About Hannah Boyd

Hannah was born in Illinois, USA, with a paintbrush in her hand. Her love of travel quickly whisked her away to stunning places near and far, extensively traveling the US and internationally with the purpose of capturing beautiful moments with brushstrokes. Her mission is to inspire others to take in the beauty hidden within the everyday moments of their lives. Landscapes, animals, and portraiture all play a vital role in her body of work. 

Her passion for helping others to see the beauty around them has led her to teach in private art schools as well as host public classes and workshops. Her work has shown in galleries across America. Award winning artist, she has sold internationally to private and public collectors in countries such as Finland, Norway, Mexico, Columbia, and Ireland. Most recently, she ventured to Italy where she painted a mural in Sgurgola outside of Rome. 

Her work has been reinvigorated as life moved outside into the realm of painting en plein air. Oils, watercolor, and pastels are used to showcase the brilliance of the living intelligence of nature. The magical world around us is portrayed by merging en plein air painting alla prima techniques and meditation to focus on loving-kindness and connectedness with our environment and each other. Her stylistic and vibrant paintings, through dynamic use of color, express emotion and fluidly portray the ever present essence of an ever changing subject. Detail is added with careful placement of line and shadow to hint at the sublime world within reality.
