Artist Profile
A Growth Journey
ABOUT
Naa K. Hans is Ghanaian born, UK resident based in London. In 2021 during the pandemic she gained two coaches who directed her to pursue a growth mind set with godly perspective. In her discovery she realized what had been staring at her in the face all these years, yet she had abandoned for fear of failure, vulnerability, unknown, perfection amongst other things. Being naturally a creative person she had abandoned this aspect of herself. Finally she had her breakthrough and turned to art, the gift she had neglected and felt ashamed of because she didn’t fully understand its purpose in her life. She decided to pursue her love for art and to be more intentional about it, going beyond a creative outlet to creativity itself.
She has since discovered art, painting to be another tool she can use to communicate when she doesn’t have the words to say. She has found that she could reach people and be a part of a community that would also embrace that part of her. Now art and storytelling is becoming an essential part of her identity. She has found her best form of expression and she is loving the journey.
Vision Statement
My vision is to connect with, inspire, reshape thoughts and create paradigms in the hearts and minds of collectors and other artist. Ultimately, to use my platform to mentor and guide fellow artist through godly leadership and counsel to live their life with purpose and authenticity through their work.
Artist Mission Statement
“I strive to create a narrative of art that addresses emotions and spirituality, drawing from my own experience, beliefs and convictions, and also that of my subjects. The universal pieces are also created for all to relate to in a symbolic and surrealist way. ”
