My name is Mark Hahn, born and raised in Topeka, KS.
Exposed to all things Midwest at an early age; our beautiful rivers, lakes, prairies, farm lands, big blue sky, the Flint Hills, and yes our flat-lands. It will always be HOME.
My Art is an obsession. It is my core. It is my well being. If you have ever heard me talk about my Art, I usually begin by saying that I became an Artist the day my mother taped my first masterpiece to the refrigerator. From that day on, I found a sense of self worth and satisfaction in creating.
My qualifications are my failures. Obsessed with an idea, I relentlessly pursue results until mastered or find content with lessons learned.
I know what creating does for me. I know the benefits, the escape, and the fulfillment it brings. I am able to share, communicate, collaborate and express my feelings and emotions through Art.
I draw inspiration from nature, energy from the soil and wonderment from its secrets. Our planet speaks to us if we just listen. You can feel it’s energy if you are open to touch, and you can see into its soul if you close your eyes.
The Means is the making of a connection between Earth and Art.
The Method is the natural process I use in creating.
I hope that through my art I can share my creative process and form a connection between you, my art, and our planet.
