Silhouette in bloom

Created using mixed media acrylic and spray paint, this piece combines layered colours, drips and expressive mark-making to build rich visual depth and atmosphere. Modelling paste was applied as a foundational layer to create physical texture across the surface, allowing the painting to hold both tactile and emotional dimension. 

Inspired by light and shadow.. I hope this piece speaks to people who feel hidden. It is a reminder that even when anxiety or difficult transitions casts long shadows, there is still beauty, brightness, identity, and worth waiting to be noticed. I want this painting to quietly say "I see you, even here in these shadows"

This feature piece is an 8x8" mixed media painting on canvas by Hannah Deetlefs. One of a kind original piece
