Tyla Shocks Fans as She Reveals She Painted the Portrait in Her ART Music Video
Tyla
South African global pop star Tyla has surprised fans with a personal revelation, she painted the striking portrait featured in her latest music video, ART. The visually rich video, released earlier this month, sparked admiration for its creative direction, but few knew that one of its standout visual elements was created by the singer herself.




Tyla shared the behind-the-scenes detail in a recent social media post, revealing her deep-rooted passion for painting and the visual arts. “That painting in the ART video? I painted it myself,” she wrote, sending fans into a frenzy of admiration.



Before rising to global fame with hits like Water, Tyla was known among her peers for her talent in fine arts during her school years. Her ability to blend visual expression with sound adds a new layer of meaning to ART, a track that explores themes of beauty, self-expression, and identity.



By creating the portrait herself, Tyla bridges her two creative worlds—music and visual art—bringing a deeply personal touch to the project. The revelation has sparked a wave of praise across social media, with fans calling her “a true multidisciplinary artist.”

With this unexpected reveal, Tyla continues to prove that her artistry extends far beyond the studio mic—making her not just a pop star, but a creative force to be reckoned with.
