Her primary artistic focus is portraiture, with a particular attention to facial expressions, accessories and other details that offer deeper insight into the subject than appearance alone. . Rather than painting people exactly as they appear, Hannah strives to paint who they are. Her goal is not photorealistic accuracy, but emotional and expressive truth.

She is drawn to the unique ways people choose to exist in the world, seeing the differences as some of the most beautiful aspects of being human.
