Hello. I’m Cyndy Hanna, an art teacher and artist with 25 years of experience working with both children and adults. I was born and raised in Shreveport, LA and have just recently returned to my home state after being away for many years. I proudly call Lafayette, Louisiana my new home. Coming from a family of Louisiana artists – my great grandmother, grandmother, mother and 3 sisters – I have been inspired by the creativity that surrounded me throughout my lifetime.

In my home studio, I create one – of – a – kind works of art using my unique painted papers and textured papers along with acrylic paints. My approach, which I like to call “Painting with Paper,” takes the traditional concept of collage to a whole new level.

My artwork is characterized by vibrant colors, clean and blurred lines, and often with a mix of whimsy and calm. When working, I’m ready to bring my ideas to life. I strive for every piece to provide a sense of joy and inspiration to the viewer. I’m thrilled to share my journey with others and continue to explore the endless possibilities of my artistic expression with paper.
