About Hannah Leigh

Hi y’all! Let me introduce myself, my name is Hannah Diehl. I was proudly born and raised in the great state of Texas, with my younger sister. I’m a lover of Jesus, all things art, family, event planning, low-tox living + more. I graduated from Texas State University with a BFA in Studio Art and an EC-12 certification. I was a full-time elementary art teacher for 3 years in Dallas, but am now working as an art teacher at the sweetest art studio. Being able to share my love for art with all my kiddos is truly a dream! I am currently living in New Braunfels, TX with my husband!
​
From a young age I've always been intrigued by art. All I wanted to do was create. Conveniently, my grandfather was an amazing painter and wood worker, so he was always encouraging my sister and I to make art. I loved experimenting with different types of mediums, I wanted to try everything - drawing, oil painting, watercolor and fiber arts. I still love experimenting with art, especially recreating the same work in different mediums to see how it changes. What I love the most is painting places I’ve visited, especially places that have stolen a piece of my heart. And painting them in ways that show what I find beautiful about each place, how I see them and the emotion I resonate with it. It takes me back to that moment in time.
​
My goals are simple, just create and share my little corner of the world with others. I want to create without doubt and without worry. I would love to share my work with others, inspire creativity and evoke emotion. My ultimate dreammm is to one day own an art gallery in the Texas Hill Country with curated art, a section of local children’s art on display, a room to teach private classes and art lessons, a studio for myself and to use the space to host events!
​
I SO appreciate you stopping by, and I hope you love my pieces as much as I do. I can’t wait to continue this journey, and hopefully make my ultimate dream come true :’)
