South African sensation Tyla is taking the world by storm once again — but this time, it’s not with her chart-topping hits.
The Grammy-winning star has left fans speechless after revealing that the striking portrait featured in her “Art” music video was painted by her own hand.
In a move that has only deepened her reputation as one of today’s most multidimensional artists, Tyla’s latest revelation has fans rediscovering her not just as a pop icon, but as a true creative powerhouse.
Yes, I painted that one myself
The revelation came as a surprise to many, as the music video for her song “Art” is packed with visually rich, museum-worthy pieces.
But Tyla confirmed that the soulful portrait at the center of the video is her original creation, connecting the themes of her music with her lifelong love for painting.
A Creative Full Circle
What many fans didn’t know is that before global fame, Tyla was known for her artistic talents in school, frequently praised for her intricate brushstrokes and eye for detail.
Now, years later, her return to the canvas feels like a creative full-circle moment, blending her past and present with the same fearless energy that defines her sound.
💬 “It’s not just music for her. It’s expression in every form,” commented one fan on social media, alongside a side-by-side of Tyla’s stage presence and painting process.
A Visual Artist in Her Own Right
Whether it’s her dance moves, vocal range, or now her brushwork, Tyla continues to prove that she’s not limited to one medium.
Critics and fans alike are calling for her to host a solo art exhibition, with many noting that her visual work deserves a place in galleries, just like her music on global stages.
With “Art” gaining traction for both its sonic and visual brilliance, the spotlight is on Tyla not just as a performer, but as a rising multidisciplinary artist.
In an industry that often boxes in its stars, she’s stepping out with paintbrush in hand — and fans are more inspired than ever.
