Hi, I’m Hannah! I am an Illustrator and Storyteller based in St Albans. My key interests lie in children’s book illustration, commercial illustration, surface design and printmaking. When I am not in my home studio, you can usually catch me on long walks with my camera enjoying the wildlife that hugely influences my work.
In 2019 I graduated with a First Class Bachelors Degree in Illustration at York St. John University which inspired me to undergo further studies into Children’s Book Illustration. In 2021 I gained my Masters in Children’s Book Illustration at Cambridge School of Art. I am currently working as a Designer at Campbell Books, Macmillan Publishers.
Some of my early illustrations have been published in 'Science Fiction for Survival: An Archive for Mars, a Terra Two Anthology’. This is a project I have worked closely with since my Undergraduate studies, designing their logo.
