Hi there! 

I'm Hannah and I am a freelance illustrator living in beautiful Somerset, UK.

I'm so excited that you've found my website. It's full of all the things that take place in my mind; the peculiar little characters that dwell there and the observations of all the impossibly marvellous things that nature does. 

My education and work:
I am the great x4 granddaughter of the English landscape painter John Constable, so following a childhood in which I was encouraged by a wonderfully creative family to pursue my love of drawing, I continued down that route and completed a degree in Fine Art at the University of Suffolk. From there I worked for the National Trust, designing family trails and activities, and next went on to become Senior Graphic Designer for Kettlewell, a very colourful clothing company.

The way I create:
I work traditionally in watercolour, gouache and coloured pencil.
