About Hannah

Growing up in Dorset, Hannah was surrounded by rolling hills and dramatic coastlines which fed her love of drawing from an early age. She graduated with first class honours in Illustration from Falmouth University College in 2007, and has worked as an artist and illustrator since; writing and illustrating her own award winning picture books, as well as on editorial work and commissions for private clients.

Hannah is now West Midlands based, specialising in landscapes, both urban and rural, and portraiture. Inspired by mid-century Ladybird illustrators such as SR Badmin and painter and designer Eric Ravilious, her work has a narrative atmosphere, influenced by her affinity for storytelling, ink and the illustrated lens she sees the world through.

Hannah is interested in the idea of home, belonging and our connection to the environment we find ourselves in. She loves to play with the colours found in nature, a cityscape, or a face using layers of paint and meandering line work.

Hannah lives with her husband and two children, and enjoys being part of the thriving local art scene where she lives. She takes on commissions of all types, so please get in touch for a chat if anything that you’ve seen here speaks to you. She aims to really convey the essence of the person, place or moment that you love through her work and aims to create special pieces to be treasured forever.
